You're also assuming the braking is an act with intent to harm, rather than a reaction to something the drafting ******* can't see. To your safety, it's the same thing, which is why it's blitheringly idiotic and irresponsible to be that drafting *******.
You seem to live in a world in which when you start drafting someone, they are obligated to keep the hammer down as long as you're back there, regardless of what's in the road. And that attitude is exactly (well much of) the reason I hate having people back there.
