That's my point. Traction Control should be your right wrist, not a computer.
Atleast KRJR agrees with me

That's my point, and why I disagree with TC. Riding incorrectly should be as important as riding correctly. Making bikes that compensate for a rider's inabilities will only diminish the quality of the racing because it will mean "subpar" (and I use that term loosely since we are talking about MotoGP) riders won't be punished for their mistakes. Whether that punishment be sliding (which means lost time for that lap) or highsiding.
