Default front right brqke pads wear

I have a 2003 touring with about 24000 miles on the car. Recently the right front brake pads started making this grinding noise. So i figured the brake is gone. I took it to my mechanic and he confirmed that the right front pad is almost gone. I asked him how come only the right front is gone, not the rest. He told me that it could be the uneven pressure in the braking system that caused the right front to wear out faster than the rest. Shouldn't all the pads have the even wear? please give me feedback on why only the right front wore out faster than the rest

- perhaps blockage in the right break lines or air bubbles in the right break line.

- perhaps warped right break rotor.

I just learned a little about the breaks by changing my pad and rotors, so I could be completly wrong....

The rears pad arent used as much as the fronts so the pads in the rear wont wear down as fast as the fast as the front breaks.

Non Brembo brakes ?

Could need a caliper tune-up! Sliders can get dirty and size a bit. This will wear your pads faster as pressure is not 100% released between brakings.
