I had a winter of long roller rides (3.5 hours was the longest) and by the time I hit the road again I could ride on the white line with no effort. I think the dynamics are the same, just higher stakes on the rollers!

The thing is that in order keep a srtraight line on a very narrow path, you need much finer motor control of your arms, a good 'feel' for your bike, some good components, and the ability to remember to be able to look farther in front of the bike, but keep your awareness of where you are steering based on your inputs to the bike, but not looking down.
If you want to be impressed by one of the best in the world at steering difficult scary /r/sweatypalms courses:

Watch the "do a wheeelie" vid on his YT home -- doing a wheelie on a train-rail, and jumping to the other train-rail without losing your wheelie or momentum - but all his vids are mind blowing.
