Regen is a function of moving magnetic fields. Would need pretty stiff gearing to get to zero even in a tesla which still uses brakes in the last wee bit of stopping although they could reverse the motor

Maybe. I'm an engineering drop-out.
If electric motors have 100% torque at 0RPM, wouldn't an electric brake as well? Considering that with brushless motors the rotation of the field is independent of the rotation of the shaft?
FUV have regen, hydraulic brake and an obnoxious electric parking brake.
