Part of the problem on the factory ecu is that it's slow to respond to throttle pedal input, especially at throttle lift off. I personally have issues with and oem ecus as I transition extremely fast from throttle to brake and because I'm on the brake before the throttle shuts, there is no vacuum assist from the brake booster and you get a rock hard pedal initially.

Left foot braking would only make this worse since you probably have more overlap.
