Having full defeatable electronic control systems is important to me as well. But I do believe there should be a cheat code for completely disabling electronic controls. And from the few cases I have heard there are cheat codes to disable aids if turning them off doesn't do so.
I'm convinced you're right. The case can also be applied for motorcycles.
