My Ride: 545I and a half dozen other rides
Hopefully I can explain.
More traction and better control with traction control turned off. We have what is called open rear ends
Without computer intervention one tire would spin while no power is sent the the other wheel. With intervention the computer applies brakes to the spinning tire and/or reduces throttle in order to reduce tire spin. Put this in and there is less intervention as more power is applied to both wheels.

Hey Joe. Will do. Look forward to getting it back tomorrow. 
I couldn't have explained this better.
Its pretty easy. Just unbolt the driveshaft and axles and you can wiggle at least the driveshaft free. The axles required a bit of prying/tapping lightly with a mallet. The differential is heavy. One person can lift it though.
