I don't see it as moving away it is under it, pushing against it. Everything going up no separation. It it were on top it would be pulling away which I would see the brace holding it together

When I roll my car forward against the pawl I can see the nose rotate downward...

Now if the front of the diff rotates downward then the brace could be holding it up. So maybe I have been looking at it backwards:)

That's because the weight moved forward and back end rose up. On launch the front of diff moves up and rear weight goes down. On older cars they always put the diff snubber above the front snout to keep it down.
