Ok, I think I figured it out. I don't know why I have been considering longitudinal and lateral separately. Just as with lat weight transfer having a net lower g capacity, it would effectively work the same way on longitudinal.
The extra weight would add capacity, but not at the same rate as the weight added so the net g capacity would be lower.
In other words, all these guys running more roll resistance in the rear are wrong, unless I am missing something.
The only way they could be accelerating through the corner is if the rear tire had some reserve capacity and they were not at the limit on the rear, and if the roll couple is biased toward the rear, then the front is certainly not at the limit and any perceived understeer must have been induced. Now my problem is that in order to get more than about 55% roll couple in the front I have to disconnect my rear bar which will hurt my overall roll resistance no a car that is already pretty soft.
