It doesn't suddenly stop, either. The mechanics of every *-ROM I have owned (to confess, only four) have gentily slowed down the disc. It wouldn't make sense if it did stop it suddenly, and it certainly doesn't make sense that the motor locks without power. There is a back-EMF in the motor if a closed circuit exists, counter-acting the rotation. In my honest opinion, it would not be strong enough to cause such a deceleration to make a disc warp thus contacting any stray parts in the ROM.
