Surly an inspection of each component is warranted before making a decision. Are the pads worn down to the sensors? Have the rotors a lip on he top circumference? If so, have you measured the thickness to see if they are still in spec?
Changing out all 4 brake rotors, pads, sensors, fluid etc. is not a cheap operation, especially if you use high quality parts....
Steve Tinker. Why would you go the distance to change out EVERYTHING. I've done brakes on several brands of cars for decades and never changed the brake fluid, sensors, etc...just the pads and sometimes the rotors when they needed to be due to fading and/or cracking or worn below tolerance. Changing brakes is cheap and relatively easy.
