Nah, I don't think I have a binding problem. The right and left inner pads were equally worn. Very unlikely a binding problem will be on both left and right inner pad locations simultaneously and to the same extent. I had bought a replacement set of pads previously and did a thorough brake job at the time I found the worn inner pads, and I assure you everything else was in proper order.
No disrespect intended, but if the job was done wrong odds are it was done wrong on both sides. Case in point, I have seen people slap brake pads on and do no cleaning or lubing, or lubricate parts with too little grease, or the wrong grease. If everything is done correctly the pads should be wearing very close to even.
