Your right. Your front brkaes do 80% of the work if you have rear drums, but saying that your front brakes do all the work when you press the pedal is incorrect or perhaps you are exaggerating.

Try driving a car with only front disc brakes and then say rear drums do nothing.

Also, you can't put big brakes on the font without going disc on the rear. If you do, you'll unbalance your braking system so badly, it will be as if you have no brakes on the rear at all and you're much more likely to lose control of the car when braking.
