PASM and/or Sport Chrono?

Down to some final decisions about options before ordering 987S. I keep flipping on whether I want PASM and/or the Sport Chrono.

I don't plan to track the car. I'm pushing 50 and want a comfortable ride. But I do look forward to the Porsche experience.

As far as I understand it, the Sport Chrono option doesn't do much except change how far the gas pedal needs to be depressed to open the throttle. Does it do anything else?

How often is the PASM suspension stiffening engaged in day-to-day driving? Is it good to have it just as a safety feature? In other words, if I were to take a corner at too high a speed, would it help me maintain control of the car? (Do you need the Sport button function to best utilize PASM?)

I know these topics already have been discussed somewhat, but I thought I'd ask again, especially since some of you have broken in your new 987s and may have refined your perceceptions. Your opinions are valued. Thanks.
