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 NV125 models are chain driven with a clutch system that allows this to vary up to 100%. It just does.

I guess Sir Issac Newton was wrong.
I guess the torque to that gear must take a bus to Hoboken, NJ or something like that.
The torque ratio is fixed ONLY as long as both front and rear gears are turning at the same rpm. When one gear is slowed or stopped the torque supplied to that gear transfers to the other gear in this universe.
