WE NEED A T-LOK STICKY!!
The T-Lok transfers drive power to both wheels. This increases traction. It also enables you to put more power to the pavement. Simple enough?

Cost. AKA GREED. Pure and simple. It costs more so they'd have to charge more.

that would depend on your tires and traction on them as well. You will have somewhat better traction bc of both tires taking control when needed but you need way more than that
