Safety is everybody's concern, and tire safety here boils down to traction and blowouts. You kind of indirectly implied that you're concerned about traction loss. Anecdotally, I can say that my extra 5 PSI haven't turned the highway into a skating rink for me, even with some vicious rainstorms lately. I'll repeat that if softer tires make the difference for traction it's the driver's fault for driving at that ragged edge of performance in the first place.
