I am saying that a fixed, split-ratio, gear-driven transfer case (like the NV 124 and NV 125 in non-Xdrive vehicles) will output power at a fixed ratio front to rear. That torque transfer ratio is 38 front, 62 rear and it is constant, not variable.
Electronic nannies (like DSC) and zillions of hypothetical situations can do what they want, but the physical gears and the static behavior of the NV124 cannot be changed. It just can't.
XDrive equipped models (ATC 500) come with a clutch system that allows this to vary up to 100%. It just does.
Edited to correct part numbers.
