It does fine - all U.S. certified aircraft have to be stable in roll. Like I said, it's a lovely hand-flying airplane. I have no idea why CWS was installed without a way to turn it off.
I had a former Douglas engineer tell me they originally were going to remove the power levers in the MD-11. It would be the world's first "push-button" throttles - you were either in speed mode or max/mct/climb. The MD test pilots rebelled and got them to rethink it.
But it says alot about their philosophy - and again points to why so many of these things end up in a ball. Pilots were told (I was told, by two different companies) to maintain the highest level of automation at all times....
