The box doesn't say stick your foot to the floor and break as hard as you can.

no but it does say
Step 1. Seal all brake ducts. Step 2. Slowly engage brakes 6 to 8 times at medium speeds Do not drag brakes or come to a complete stop. Step 3. Increase speeds to simulate race conditions; allow 6 to 8 high pressure (about 500 psi) snubs at racing speeds. Total engagements for Step 2 and Step 3 should be a maximum of 15 to 20. Step 4. Remove brake duct seals. Allow the system to cool for about 15 minutes. Do not engage brakes while car is parked during cool down period
and no one is slamming on brakes.
and i also am not sure how you perform all these motions without making the brakes crazy hot

Whoever advised you to wait doesn't know. Once you complete the steps and let the brakes cool you're good to go.
