No DSC in AWD means you could fling the car around a curve at 60 mph and the car will allow itself to get out of shape, DSC would intervene to keep you in your line.

I just wanted to add that you can easily test the limit, maybe let me say my limit, of these cars. Take the car in comfort mode around a tight curve at your max speed. Repeat in sport + and repeat with everything off. Comfort mode keeps your in line. You can feel the nannies kicking in to stop the tail from misbehaving. In sport+ the tail is liberated to the extent that I am comfortable with (my limits). My limits are obviously lower than JVs
