?? DTC responds without braking, it shifts torque, thus changing the logical method of human interaction to the situation..... Where am I wrong exactly?
Here's where: First, it is incorrect that DTC responds without braking. Both DSC and DTC generally respond with individual wheel braking first, and then power reduction, depending on which (and how many) wheels are spinning. Second, the way that DSC/DTC shifts torque is by braking individual wheels. In xi models, the xDrive system will shift torque front to back as necessary, but side-to-side torque shifting is only accomplished through wheel braking because our cars do not have LSDs.
