Everything you just ranted about is exactly what was said in the argument. E-diff and DSC are great for people who still need to build confidence and skill, but as you progress as a driver you will want to learn to drive with them turned them off. Even beginner level drivers in BMW CCA would use traction control (single click) because DSC just intervenes too much.

The argument was purely abotu whether E-DIFF slowed the car down, which I think no one will ever prove definitively either way with actual data, but I think I presented the bulk of the argument for why e-diff absolutely can be slower than an open diff in situations. I didn't really get any solid rebuttal.
