Yes I'm well aware that it's blended, but with manual braking in the MME you don't know when you're engaging the hydraulic brakes. Therefore you are likely using hydraulic brakes on occasion and increasing wear and tear.

Tesla does have blended braking but in a different sense since there is no ability to disable regen. Removing your foot from the pedal initiates full regen. Pressing the brake adds hydraulic on top of regen braking. Tesla actually does show you the percentage of regen vs hydraulic. The green bar to the left of center is regen while grey to the left of green is hydraulic.
Yeah, the best we've got is Brake Coach in Engaged. The regen is quite healthy, and it's fairly easy to get 100% most of the time. You have to hammer on the brakes hard at speed to get friction to kick in - certainly harder than I want to be braking in most cases. When I tested Unbridled 1PD, it was pretty startling how fast it would stop by just lifting the throttle.

To each their own, but I wished that it was stronger. The lowest regen in Rivian is the same as unbridle and the highest is where I have it set. I had wished the MachE had stronger regen. Tesla regen is similar to engage.

You obviously just haven't got used to driving in that manner. Once you learn to feather the accelerator in the exact same way you feather the brake you'll be wondering why you hadn't done it all along.

Set up another profile with the 1 pedal off.

Then sync it to the buttons on the door say #3.

Push #3 when you want to park.

Just a thought from a random dude on the internet…
This is precisely what I do. Because of my very unusual driveway, 1PD doesn't work well for getting into my garage. No amount of finesse will change that. For some reason 2PD is better. But other than that situation and the occasional parallel parking on a steep hill, I prefer 1PD.
