I'm sure I read wheelieing, when I scanned this earlier.
I did wonder how you would notice a rubbing noise under these conditions. And if there was a situation to cause rubbing then this would probably be it. (Still wish I could get the front wheel up when I wanted it too)

Brakes do make swishing noises sometimes, I find if you go for a good ride and apply the brakes really ******* hard. This can sort the swishing out - discs can warp slightly. It also allows you to practice emergency stops.

Caveat: Maybe check there is nothing hanging off first that shouldn't be. I also have little to no technical know how.
