mmm i don't know exactly your point for saying this but there are varying situations to which the above philosophy can't exactly be applied.

most of what you said this is assuming that for one your front tires aren't overloaded, which means you have enough traction to both steer and brake. when you are over the limit of adhesion... the braking will only cause more understeer.

left foot braking is beneficial when you DON'T want this extra weight to go onto the front causing an overload. for instance in a varying radius turn... if you have a reducing radius turn you progressively have to brake more while going into the turn adn sometimes it works VERY nicely just as you described... but sometimes you lose too much speed and the corner exit is weak or sometimes the decrease in radius and the need for deceleration overloads your front tires. so in these cases left foot braking are good.

also... you should never apply brakes mid corner. you should be braking into mid corner but never starting to brake while you're mid corner, that's when you know you f'ed up and it's a hairy situation because if you brake you're screwed but slowing down if you don't brake you have some more control (not much) but you're still screwed. at that point you're just heading for something hard and ti's gonna hurt.

also... initiating a brake midturn also upsets the balance of the car... which might bring your traction bias up front... but will most likely overload the tires at least for one instat if not for hte rest of the turn.
