i always do the whole disc for different reasons
1 :looks better when i deliver the part
2 even after the brake pad makes its path you still have the section above and below the pad area that shows
3 :some dics i do end up on show bikes and need to be fully polished

I've never had to do a strictly show bike, and the shop I do discs for understands what the pads are going to do to the disc, so that doesn't apply to my work. I also would be a little nervous about riding a bike the first time after a disc is fully polished...seems like you'd lose a little grip there.
