My understanding the EDL will not cut power only brakes the spinning wheel.

Correct!

Wrong!

Maybe this is because after March 2007 the 335i got the
Dynamic Performance Control diff. (aka E-LSD)which is a mechatronic system where the final drive is combined with two superimposed gearsets and two electronically controlled multiple-plate brakes (one for each wheel):
So, it's NOT your rear pads that may wear-off but these multiple-plate brakes on the differential itself, just like the multiple clutch plates do in a normal LSD.
All the ABS system do is providing the sensors for detecting wheel spin.
The mechatronic system takes up to 100 milliseconds for generating the maximum breaking force. And, regardless of the drive power generated by the engine the maximum difference in forces between the left- and right-hand rear wheel which can be built up by the system is
1,800 Nm. This defines your percentage of locking.
This setup also means that at NO engine torque (with the clutch disengaged for instance) you still benefit from the locking effect as opposed to what would happened with a mechanical LSD where you were basically driving with an open diff.
