Just to be clear, the cause of ice mode is a differential in wheel speed between the right and left sides of the car right after brakes are applied.
It does this because if half the car is on ice and the other half is on pavement a full application of the brakes will cause the car to spin. Typical scenario is the passenger side of the car goes off the road or onto ice that's on the shoulder, driver jams on the brakes, car spins into oncoming traffic. Ice mode is designed to avoid this.
