Also much easier to learn than I thought. Just half an hour yesterday and half an hour today, and already I can go 20 km/h without a problem, or take tight curves.

    no, not really

    i ride with a regular summer tire in the rain a lot and never experienced issues, the traction is reduced, yes, so you probably shouldn’t try to do pedal-scraping turns at high speeds, but other than that you’re fine

    from the outside perspective i guess it would seem that an EUC is very slippery and unstable, and to some degree that is true, but with a proper tire you can ride on any surface just fine, for example there are winter tires with a lot of threading and spikes that allow you to ride on basically pure ice without any issues)
