I think people base their idea of RWD winter driving on what they actually get a chance to drive -- old lightweight muscle cars and modern pickup trucks (RWD or with 4WD turned off), neither of which are particularly good in the snow.
I know that I was VERY surprised to be able to get up my snowy icy uphill gravel driveway in my RWD 1980 Buick LeSabre the one time I drove it in the winter. I was amazed as it simply powered it's way right up the driveway. I bet that traction works on the road to prevent wheelspin-induced fishtailing too.
