Those pitted areas will be hard to see once the rotors are on. You can use a carbide cutter to clean the pits up and then use a sanding roll to smooth it out. Once it's level you can reblast it to give it a even texture so it will match the other areas.

I'm certainly not an expert, but I'd use that in a heartbeat.

That looks like intergranular corrosion. The only way to remove it is mechanical. You could blend it out and see how deep it goes. You might think about getting them treated after you blasted them. They will corrode more without it.

Personally, I'd run them after some cleanup. It's not around the lug holes where strength matters.
