If you don't have the switch, I don't believe you have TCS.

If you don't have the switch in front of the shifter, you don't have TCS, which is rare

does a "low trac" light flash when you burnout in sand or on pavement, if it does, and you feel the gas pedal kick back at you, then you have ASR "tcs", if yes and u have no switch, you have a rare ass car

no switch, no traction control. If you need to further investigate look under the hood, if you have one cable going to the throttle body you have traction control, if you have two cables going to the throttle body you don't have traction control.

look right above your battery man, there should be a small black box there and that is the traction control system

If you can do a burnout easily, then you don't have TCS. Anyone with tcs that has tried to do a burnout and forgot to turn it off quickly remembers that it's on. The gas pedel "pushes" back, the engine bogs, and you look like a fool that can't drive. My brother had a TA without tcs and if I remember right, the light on the dash would still come on under low traction conditions.

Why is not having TCS on an '02 WS6 so rare? I ask because I don't have it either.
