+1. It gets hairy when you change your steering inputs based on feel (lets say the rear starts a good slip angle), and suddenly both you and the traction control are dialing in counter steer. You'll dart across the track if you don't also anticipate the additional inputs from traction control, which vary depending on too many things to keep track of. Track.
