BQ76952: Role of driver MOSFET with DSG pin

Part Number: BQ76952

Tool/software:

Hi,

This a snipped from the datasheet of BQ76952.

What is the role MOSFET Q4 in the circuit? Can you please explain as to how the discharge driver works here?

Can the DSG pin not drive the discharge MOSFET directly as in case of CHG pin?
