The person cutting off is most likely the problem.

They need to match speed and merge in where there is space; if you see traffic merging in to your lane, leave space for them (drop speed by ~2 kph) so you don't have to brake.

If your driving philosophy assumes everyone is always gonna merge safely, you're gonna be jerking on the brakes a lot, at the very least.

I hardly ever use my brakes on the highway, so idk how to respond to that. A lot of generalizations don't really function anyway due to local driving cultures and infrastructure.
