 Front wheel drive was invented to make cars cheaper to assemble
	Front wheel drive was invented to make cars cheaper to assemble Adding to the stress on steering and braking tyres by adding torque to them is stupid from an engineering point of view.
Front drive cars can oversteer easily too, just for different reasons.
I'll give you the snow one, weight over the driving wheels is why, although dumb traction control strands many expensive rear-drive cars in snow these days.
