I don't like to give up performance when I don't have to, so I run summer tires whe I can, but once it is below 50 during the day I switched to the DWS.
I had no problem in the snow and didn't notice the traction loss DD in cold weather, but I don't think you should be anywhere close to the traction edge on public streets.
Once the temps came up above 50 again, I switch back. My tire shop stored the DWS for me, so I can just drop the car off and have them swap tires next fall.
Did it for ten years with the NSX, only had a couple of slight slides downhill in snow, but I don't drive when the snow on the road is taller than my car's nose
- wait for the snow plow or get a ride in my wife's Jeep.
