Since you can "push in the direction that you want to go," you can also pull in the direction that you don't want to go to achieve the same effect.

And then, when you combine them, you get a REALLY fast turn-in.

Yes, but I can't really blame anyone for that. Most of us started riding bicycles, thereby countersteering, long before we had a concept of what it is.

I tried motorcycle countersteering on a bicycle once... I fell over really fast. (As in, onto the ground.) You have to be going pretty fast for it to become countersteering, and then, the tires are so skinny, that you just fall into max lean near-instantly.
