"My theory is the flat tire causes enough side force that counter steering is required (I,e, the good tire has to scrub some in the opposite direction). So even while attending the wheel, the driver needs to make a turn toward the good tire in order to return to and continue traveling straight. This probably varies greatly with how the tire goes, if you’re riding on the rim, etc,"

It is NOT a theory, it is a fact. It's proved in many videos. The important thing about is that the counter-steer angle of the good inflated steer tire only has to be approximately 4 to 5 degrees...."piece of cake".
