..."However breaking that leaf will remove *all* the roll stifffness
from the rear"...

Not exactly - unless you manage to break the bottom leaf on BOTH sides
of the diff.  If you just break it one side, the bottom leaf will push
down on the side that isn't broken, but not on the side that is, so that
could cause the car to lean on it's own even if the front were perfect.
