You are. From driver inputs understeer can be reduced by mass/grip transfer to front .. by easing on throttle or light braking, not something opposite that on countrary reduces mass transfer/grip to front and further reduces front grip.
Well, one can reduce rear grip with adding gas even further to level of complete overcoming traction, and go sideways drifting. Skidding tires will certainly have less traction then still having grip fronts. But, it's not norm to drift through every turn on public roads, and drifting is slow way to go around track.
