The first quote of yours mentions nothing about locking brakes. It simply states that if the wheel speed drops suddenly (i.e. at a rate faster than the flywheel will decelerate) the valve opens to release brake pressure.

Your threshold braking article then goes on to mention "at all times, avoid actual locking of the wheels." But you conveniently ignore this. It then goes on to say: "A human driver can perform one press-release cycle per second with practice" yet you are claiming they can do it at a much faster rate?

The "chirping" sound you hear is not the wheel locking and unlocking repeatedly, it is the tyre stretching and releasing repeatedly. You know when you've locked a brake in a kart because the rear immediately loses lateral grip (and longitudinal also but it's the loss of lateral grip you feel).
