You are correct in every way. A lot of people forget that things like ABS and air bags are government mandates not optional extras. Most of that traction/braking stuff still boils down to proper tires for the task at hand. For instance, advertising has brainwashed people into thinking that 4WD or AWD is the end all and that they can drive straight up an ice covered wall even with those wide bald tires. I also love the term 'all weather tires'. People actually believe that stuff. When we bought our latest car my wife just had to have leather (like every car she has had for the last 27 years).

When I was a kid my father (a product of the Great Depression) would only buy new cars and always the cheapest one on the lot (the ones that were stripped and priced to advertise and get customers to come in) and they were virtually worthless even before you drove it off the lot. He got absolutely nothing for them when he traded them in (no one wanted that kind of car) which convinced him that ANY car was used up when it reached 50k miles.
