The argument works for both parties.

Sure TC can save you in a few very specific cases, but those cases involve a combination of breaking the law (taking a corner faster than it was designed for) or driving at speeds that weather doesn't allow.
You're talking about predictable variables. TC will also aid you in unpredictable scenarios, such as an unexpected oil spill on the road.

I like the added safety that TC provides during my normal commute, but I also like the fact that Toyota/Subaru gave us the option to turn it off for the track/spirited drives.
