If people are not swerving enough then wouldn't we want to teach them to swerve?

I am pretty sure that I have answered your question. It's just a pointless distinction to make. Such pointlessness detracts from actual important lessons. Should we come up with a name for the "oversteering" used to recover from a turn (pro-steering?)? After all, if you don't do it you will be stuck in the turn forever. That would be dangerous.

Ignoring the reductio ad absurdum, then if you're referring to how you have to steer the handlebars further into a turn in order to straighten out, there is a name for that: counter-steering. :)
