I think torque vectoring is a different (more advanced) application of the same idea. TV helps rotate the vehicle based on steering input and is an active part of steering. In this case, there's no consideration for cornering, just "traction". If the vehicle thinks a wheel is spinning too fast, it applies the brake to that wheel. Without it, most newer (2009?) Subaru's will spin one tire when stuck in the snow.
