If you go off throttle the mid one way will generate less drag brake, because of the decoupling of the front belt. And by that more steering at corner entry.

It is all drag. Think of it this way. With the middle one way the front belt nd therefore the front pulley is free to rotate while with a fixed middle pulley they will be rotating as fast as the motor and rear wheels allow them to. Now add the front one-way to that. While the front one-way allows both front wheels to freewheel and, in principle, rotate independently (giving more steering), if you run a fixed middle pulley the lateral forces during cornering reduce this effect. This is because the outdrives are pressed into the front one-way causing some drag. Now put in a one-way middle pulley and while there is some of this lateral drag it is less than when running a fixed middle pulley resulting in a higher level of independence between the inside and outside front wheels and this slightly more steering still. It is not a big difference, but it is noticeable.

One important thing to know is the weight of the centre one way compared to the fixed one. This because of the 5 cell / 1350 gr. rule in Europe and Holland.
