And even if someone IS experienced... why turn it off on the street? It only intervenes when the wheels break loose, right? So it's not something anyone should be TRYING to do in public anyway.

And besides, there are unexpected events where it might save someone, regardless of skill, such as an emergency lane change. No one, no matter how skilled, can brake one side of the car to straighten it out (as stability control will).
