I don't really see the point of those, there's no torque on the knuckle.

Any squat you get would just be from the weight transfer minus whatever anti-squat the dogbones offer.

Now if you want to prevent snapping the case you need a snubber on it or some other way to restrain it's rotation besides the C-beam. I was thinking some links from the lower case bolts to the back of the car would triangulate the entire rear end and distribute the reactionary forces on the diff more, instead of the snout taking all of it. The C-beam translates that diff torque into a tensile force on the top of the snout which pulls it right off.
