Drive Dynamic seat question

There is an option, in the MFD, to set both the driver and passenger seat to either "level 1" or "level 2". It's shown in the OM however without an explanation of the difference between the two. I've tried driving with both settings but it's virtually impossible to recreate the same turns, etc.

Any of you know ? (the dealer doesn't)

Level 1 = Less sensitive to curves and slower inflation of bolsters.
Level 2 = Bolsters inflate much quicker and will react to gentler curves.

I found it easy to tell the difference while driving, and preferred Level 1.
