People should really consider short-pressing the ESC button as a "snow traction" function rather than anything performance-related. That's effectively what the manual calls it as well.
If you're trying to have fun, you want Sport+ mode, which "presses the ESC button for you" but also puts everything else into sport mode. AFAIK, Sport+ is effectively the same as putting everything into Sport and then pressing ESC yourself, except the throttle gets even touchier and the "load reversal damping" (which I suspect might only be applicable to DCT?) is in a harsher mode.
