Modern traction control; I understood applies brakes on any single wheel needed to maintain directional control, and IMO applying any brakes when trying to accelerate is seldom the fastest solution.
A few years back I clearly remember a big fancy Mercedes driven by a low skill driver would often give off nice short puffs of black brake dust as the driver accelerated out of the road track corners at Daytona. Kept him on the track, but not sure that was the fastest track outcome for the car.

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
