Then you personally probably do not ride when traction is reduced much.....ala offroad.
You should become adept at using all braking power that our weee little contact patches provide. I believe that braking force is something of a 70/30 split front to rear.
There are going to be certain circumstances that proper use of the rear brake may just save your bacon.
