So far on every vehicle with traction control I have used on snow and ice, the traction control makes the vehicle easier to get stuck and more difficult to get free.
The ones that with traction control that do the best on snow and ice, have traction control that you can fully turn off.
The ones that do the worse, like our VW, have a switch that "turns the traction control off", but it really just makes the traction control a little less active.
