Yeah, it can happen QUICK! Sometimes you need full opposite lock instantly and still can't recover. (I cut my teeth on a RWD 70s sedan as my first car, then a RWD pick up as my next one - and this was in NJ where we got a lot of snow and rain. Neither vehicle had traction control or stability control or even abs.)
Btw - for anyone wondering, leaving all the nannies on, you can still get the back end loose! I tried it on some twisties and sure enough hitting the gas mid corner the back end started to lose traction. It's not as invasive as the BMWs I've driven.
Before buying the car, and coming from a Miata with no traction or stability control, I thought I'd leave it in sport mode to allow the back end to rotate better - but the rear rotates just fine with all nannies on - for street driving at least. If you want to hug a cone with a 180 on autoX, then you'd want to turn the systems off.
