For me, I find the roadster's pedal gives me more control and more of what I want. For example, in an ICE, we all ease up on the accelerator if the traffic in front of us slows down a bit or if we approach slower traffic and need to match speed. I try NOT to hit the brake unless I need to.
With the roadster, I simply adjust my position on the pedal exactly how I did before, but now I have more control. I don't think about acceleration or deceleration. I think about where my foot needs to be in order to maintain proper position. Too far? Push down. Too close? Ease up.
I find it absolutely awesome and if anything, I want stronger regen.
Edit: Wrt to cruise control - before I cancel it, I push the accelerator to where it starts to provide more power than CC is and then I cancel it. I financial find that point pretty quick but if I need to find it quicker, I just make a best guess and hit cancel and. I'm usually close enough. At least won't be in full regen.
