I tend to agree with you, but Keith Code just wrote up an article in Motorcyclist where he said that on a properly functioning sportbike, rolling on the throttle by itself while exiting a turn does nothing to lift the bike back up. His view is that riders are unconsciously providing bar pressure to lift the bike back up while they are also rolling on the throttle.
