Floating rotors cancel out alot of the centrifugal forces of the front wheel. When attached solidly they (rotors) lose contact slightly with the pads as the wheel spins and twists. The wheel is torquing around the rotor inside the caliper. Floaters are designed to stay flush with the pads inside the calipers allowing for maximum friction.
