God knows the unskilled masses are much better off with traction/stability controls, but my personal preference is for no driver aids.

I agree. However, there's NO benefit in turning it off on the street. One really shouldn't be activiting it on the street unless they are driving beyond what's logical/needed for the street and it's there to help with some of those "oh crap" moments.
In general, as long as it can be disabled for the track/autocross then I have nothing against TCS/VSC systems.
