It doesnt warp rotors... heat does that. It could warp them if you leave the parking brake on.
The parking brake saves the parking paw in the transmission... The paw was explained to me by my uncle as "a pin that slides into a hole in a gear, inside the transmission" everytime you park on an incline, that pin and the holes get warn. Think of how hard it is to force it out of park sometimes on an incline...
THE TRANSMISSION IS NOT A KICK STAND, AND YOUR PARKING BRAKE ISNT JUST FOR EMMERGENCYS
do a search, plz
