I agree it would be fun (esp. on someone else's tyres!) but what about the counter-arguments of:
a) a few sessions on an airfied with an instructor won't be nearly enough practice to make it instinctive should it be needed on the road 6 months later.
b) isn't it better to keep well away from the limits on the road...so much so that the chances of accidentally stepping over the limit are tiny in practice?

Is it better or not better to have another tool in the box, imperfect though it may be from a bit of practice. You don't have to use it if you don't want to. Clearly better.
The only question you have to answer does that better-ness justify the nastiness (cost, time, attitude degradation etc).
