https://youtu.be/ZVW9uMeFXK8 Yet another video about static coefficient of friction on tires that aren’t slipping. Electric cars are more easily able to keep their tires in this maximum static coefficient of friction range, maximizing acceleration. |

What traction control/ABS does is keep the the tire slip ratio in the right range to optimize acceleration. https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Typical-tire-longitudina...
What we intuit about whether or not we're slipping our tires every time we brake for and then drive away from a traffic light "without slipping them" is not actually correct at a micro level. With respect to this thread, it is the micro level that is relevant to tire wear and resulting particulate emissions from that slippage.
