So I'm wondering if it's better to let the traction freak out at starts cut power and eventually get grip? Or just turn traction off.?

Bit of both. Your tires are spinning because the tread is full of snow so there no grip, but allowing them to spin will allow the snow to free itself from the tread so you will get some bit.
Too much wheel spin and you won't get any traction.
