EVs Guilt free lead foot? [Genuine technical question]

There is an F1 motor racing saying "Old granny" used to describe the best way to get of the start line. Simply translated in an EV the motor can be controlled far better and enable optimal traction (taming power/torque). ICE engines are far less controllable and it's more the Wild West when it comes to getting the power down. A well optimised control system, tyre/tyre pressure and road surface stickiness are what are required to do quick 0-60s

Sticking a variable ratio gearbox on the engine is mostly what does it though.
First, and sometimes, second gear can give access to wheel torque numbers that significantly exceed what the driven tyres can handle.
Adding 4WD obviously helps, but for high-powered RWD cars, all of us are aware of what might happen if too much throttle is used in these cars when grip levels aren't optimum and/or traction/stability control systems are off or not present.
EVs, by and large, avoid this by essentially welding the car into third gear and giving you more torque to deal with that.
