So what is an F1's rear suspension then without electronics ?
The way i see it is that when a car is full of computers and technology that controls each of the cars corner suspension ability independently from the other, each corner adjusting itself either shock or other for each corners particular moment at any time. They do call it active but its still working on its own merit differently to the other side which can be seen like how I call it as completely independent, ie to cope with how that particular corners affecting it. Either way its each to their own and no point arguing about it more.

Also like how cars can put more power into one rear wheel to cope with it slipping, that corner is working independently from the other side, doing its own independent thing.
Right but now you're talking about drive, which ventures into the territory of diffs and EBD.
And FYI spigots are used to adapt the centre bore of a wheel so it sits hubcentrically when bolted to the hub, allowing the wheel to fit centrally and help eliminate wheel wobble.
Spacers are spacers, be they bolt on or bolt through. Nothing to do with spigots.
