The DCCD only has a range of 35F/65R to 50/50. There is no full front or full rear setting.
It's been my belief that the issue with the spare is less because it's a single tire that is having to be dealt with, as opposed to both front or both rear. My thinking was that this allows the front differential (or rear, depending on where the spare is) to take some of the load away from the center diff. The front and rear differentials are designed to operate much more frequently (turning), so they aren't as adversely affected as the center is when you've got tires of different heights front to back.
Now, I don't believe the regular WRX has a front diff (it's open?) so I don't know how this affects what I've said. And, I'm by no means an expert on this.
