I push the downhills and corners to the limit every chance I get. Which I have been counseled on more than one occasion by more than one person. I needed to give it a break, because if I ever go down at 50+ mph, which is what clock every time I ride. If that happens and I live, it will probably take my 52 year old body a while to heal the damage that I'll do to it at that speed.
However, I don't change anything when it's wet, except I will notch it down to about 80% of what could do on a curve or corner.
I need to ride like you with a good level of margin. After so many years it's so hard to change, but it is a well needed change I will have to learn how to make for myself.
