The S reputation finally bit

Pleased that you got away with it.
Looks like you have reduced offset on the rears, which will make the car more sesitive to such things as wet white lines.
The best advice is possibly to let go of the steering on the first snap-it tends to stop you over-correcting and caising it to snap the other way.
It takes a bit of presence to do that, but it works.

But white lines would only cause a wobble; it's how you react (or probably over-react) afterwards that counts.

Absolutely, I have been shit sideways completely unexpectedly in an S2000 and even an old SL320 Mercedes before on a roundabout that was newly surfaced in the wet. I was barely moving too and it didn't cause an incident but those are 2 of the only times I have ever been sideways when I didn't expect to.

Pretty good 'ooops' mate - no damage and a minor brown shorts moment is ok - did you jetwash the car AND the shorts

You don't need to - if you catch the line with front & rear wheels, it hops sideways & it's fun.
Rear only & it can lead to over-correction.
White lines, gravel, ironwork; all something bikers are very aware of. That ought to include Honda CBR2000 riders too!
