That's a good point - if you've got enough torque to overcome your tyres in a straight-line launch, you're going to spin them both regardless. Where the increase in bias comes into play is accelerating out of a corner - when weight transfer will unload the inside tyre. Then, torque bias differences can mean smoking a tyre or hooking up...
Interestingly though, FRPP found that with the Quaife, when they did drag starts (in the FR200), they had enough torque they could still overcome the torque bias, and it would alternate spinning one side and then the other. The increase in torque bias from the Torsen was enough to eliminate that problem...
