Yes, they can save you in certain situations where you wouldn't be able to do so on your own.
But they can also teach you that (most of the time) you can get away with being less delicate on the throttle than you should be. Not a good thing in my book.
A wet track day is probably not a good place for a tune with aggressive tip-in response or a Vitesse throttle controller set to be any more responsive than stock.

I don't have a clue what those throttle things are, but I was babying it like crazy as I had cars in front and behind much closer than I cared for in the conditions. My throttle is stock from the factory. I wasn't in it that hard and had begun my acceleration well before hitting that curb. The curb got the car out of balance and all grip just went away instantly. There was no warning at all, it just snapped loose. I had already been through the first session of the morning, this was the second.
