What he is saying is that full floating rotors are designed to float in their carriers and that they get brake dust and road grime packed in their and cause them to freeze up...I have personally never liked full floaters cause they do require maintenance and they are noisy. When I have used them in racing applications I clean them while I am cleaning the calipers with Brake contact cleaner and a tooth brush. Most street bikes are semi-floaters and this won't really apply...
