I certainly never did, including during my racing days. I valued traction on twisty descents too much.
I dunno. I'd have thought you valued pointing the bike to the optimum line and making any sort of correction necessary even more.
As
Fredo76 said. Motorcyclists are well aware of counter-steering and consciously utilize it. Bicyclist who are not motorcyclists "just ride" by intuition and let the rest sort itself out. Blissfully unaware of the physics involved and how to consciously utilize them.
Counter-steering will make you faster anywhere there is speed plus corners.
