It's not just "better acceleration", it's more consistent and predictable acceleration. I find it makes driving backroads on a dark stormy night quite a pleasant experience.
Well we can't really compare subjective experiences. Driving backroads on dark stormy night can be fun regardless.
If you're driving in weather, acceleration should be a low priority (barring edge cases, like steep driveways). Contrary to Fast and Furious movies, accidents aren't generally avoided via acceleration. I'd rather be reminded that traction is spotty when attempting to accelerate on two wheels than abruptly finding out when I need to brake on all four.
