check it out, vented brake drums

I can see where it could help carry the brake dust out of the drum. But with only one groove, maybe two, that is about all it would do.

considering most of the weight is in the front of a Front Wheel Drive car and even more weight is shifted to the front during heavy braking, I say why?
unless you're in Le Mans 24 heating brakes for a living
