I don't really see a big difference in performance. The friction might be different but I doubt it's that much that they wouldn't use steel. I'd say it's probably just for the weight factor.

Re: dual caliper Question
its easier to cut through a 1in aluminum then it is to cut through a 1in steel plate,so its more cost effective to go aluminum while at the same time its strong enough. also stands strong against rusting after a good polish
