"rear bias in spring rate" & "you want the car to be more oversteer biased"

I'm not the one to talk, as due being cheap i went to ice track with still summer track alignment of -3 front/-2.5 rear camber that is far from stock understeer-ish biased & which is of too much camber for driving on ice, but i'm not 100% convinced on these two bits. As in - 1) unlike on tarmac, it's VERY easy to power-oversteer on loose grip surfaces like gravel/snow/ice (i balanced 1/3-1/4th of throttle un icetrack, and that's on studded tires), 2) understeer bias may slightly compensate lack of stock steering angle, to allow opening throttle more, no?
