Otherwise it's hard to drive, because the nannies would intervene every time a slip was detected making it difficult to maintain any momentum.
This is also why Sport+ uses MDM, it allows for more wheel spin without the nannies intervening. I'm sure you've run into this before, if full DSC is on and you go WOT you'll feel the car back off on power and even apply braking, because it senses slipping. Obviously not what you want for sporty driving.

Ah interesting, I have felt that on WOT.
