Traction & Stabilitrak Control Disabled Lights

What I want to know is why do the Traction Control and Stabilitrak systems turn off for any Check Engine Light? I can understand if there is a problem that impacts the ability of the car to sense and respond to skids, slides, and body rolls.

Leave your gas cap off and when the P0477 (evap system leak) light comes on you lose the TC & S systems. O2 sensor goes out in the exhaust - ditto. Vacuum leak - ditto. I suspect this is a regulatory issue since Toyotas do this as well, but I'd love to know where this requirement comes from.

I can understand these lights if there is an engine power issue such as limp mode, but leaving the gas cap off - really???
