I'd do that by locking the differential, rather than braking the errant
wheel, but I can see how the two activities could be conflated.

That's rather more expensive as it adds another component to the system
(another thing to build, and another thing to break, as well as more
weight added to the car) - all cars built since the early-mid 2000s
have individually controllable brakes and all cars even older than that
have a differential. All you need is a bit of software to make it
work. The braking solution is incredibly elegant in its efficient and
safe use of existing components.
