IOW, you've reduced your braking capacity. That's fine if it works for you, and if you don't then lie about your fantastic braking.

More probably changed the lever sensitivity. Discs apply power over a shorter span of lever travel and adjusting them back a bit allows a full grip before significant brake application. Still won't run out of lever travel.
