The job of thermal paste is to fill in holes in the joining surfaces so you have a flat thermal conductive surface. You can't see the holes.

I dislike thermal pads because they are a LOT thicker than properly applied thermal paste. It takes just a thin spread by a razor blade.

Pads are used for manufacturing expedience.
