It really isn’t. Stop locking up the brakes.

But I’m prepared to be downvoted by ‘experts’ who have almost never actually driven in the snow.

Physical addiction is a stretch

I really want someone to sell legit butter but marketed as ‘I can’t believe it’s not margarine!’

No one in their right mind would disagree with your position.
