Great points -- thanks! Of course I slow down a lot in bad conditions or (if needed) simply get off the road and wait. But if I am in slippery conditions, and driving slowly enough that sway is not a problem, then I now understand, thanks to your collective wisdom: releasing the sway bar allows me to steer into a skid, without having the rigid "lever arm" of the trailer accentuate the skid!
And really, I am not sure I need a sway bar at all, in any situation -- it is a very small and light trailer, with plenty of tongue weight. But I have never driven without it on dry highways, and it does not do any harm, so why take a chance?
