^^ That's the EBFD system giving the loose side of the diff some resistance. A Torsen diff requires some resistance on the low traction side and if there isn't enough resistance it'll unload like an open diff. To stop this the ECU will apply a bit of brake to keep the diff from unloading. It's not a stability thing, it's a keep the diff from unloading thing.
