Actually, I suspect that it's more marketing than an engineering band-aid. If one company has TC or stability control and another doesn't, then that difference could be played up in advertising. The "mine has more gadgets" factor.
Personally, I feel that while Stability Control programs may have some benefit in keeping people away from the edge of the traction envelope, traction control is just a band-aid; both should come with off switches. I'm disappointed that Saab went with a TC system rather then developing a proper limited slip.
