With the VDC off, I noticed that if you push the brake pedal (even the slightest) while the car is drifting to slow down, it feels as if VDC kicks in and adjusts the car's position and reduces power/applies brakes to the rear.
There are 2 issues at play in your above description.

1st is the brake/throttle interlock. This car cuts throttle input if you touch the brake. The stop lamp fuse should address this.

2nd is the ABS itself that works in conjunction with the stability control. Touching the brake has a tendency to "straighten" the car out. I think you would have to pull the ABS fuse to correct this.
