With respect, this is self contradictory. Sipes create a multitude of edges and corners to bite into the surface, which is exactly what gives you grip in snow.
I'll repeat.
It's primarily about contact area and flexibility. People seem to get rather get caught up with the idea that it's primarily about snow grip. The actual principle of operation is based on improving contact against a normal surface in poor conditions.
