there is absolutely nothing that is dangerous about an FRS without a functioning swaybar.

Have to say if I didn't know the links were gone I wouldn't have noticed (in traffic anyway). Pulling out of the driveway felt a bit different but I have been on winter wheels for the last 7 months anyway. Anything feels better and less mushy than oversized studded winters.

Exactly. Most hybrids don't even have sway bars to save weight. Just drive within the limits of the car and you'll be fine. At the speeds it takes to get a Prius on two wheels, I wouldn't worry much about the 86. Might be fun, will certainly be more comfortable.

I'm running no rear sway bar and having a blast

But running no front sway bar will make you more tail happy (at the limits of the car). Daily driving will see no effect at all, other than a little extra roll.
