Isn't that bar$e ackwards?
.

Yes :blush: I've corrected it above. I simply didn't write what I was thinking and stand by my point.

After blowing some cobwebs off I remembered it is the increased AOA on the down going wing (constant roll rate) that causes the out of turn roll, and therefore requires into turn aileron.
If the aircraft were rolling, yes, that's roll damping. But in a level balanced turn it is not rolling.
