Thats dealing with a pivot point. You mention an example of a stuck bolt you're trying to get out, and by moving your hand further out on the tool will increase your leverage. That's correct, but the stuck bolt is acting as the pivot point. The longer the tool acting on the pivot point (stuck bolt) the more force you will exert on the bolt. Explain to me where's the pivot point on a braking system?
