The primary reason for the key in Acc position is to power the brake antiskid system. It would be very easy to flat spot a set of toad tires if you ever have to make a panic stop. For this reason, I still have the key in Acc.
Can I ask you what is the source of this information? It seems unlikely that the ABS system would be powered in the accessory key position, but perhaps it's intentionally designed for flat towing that way. I'll test mine tomorrow and see what happens.
Update: I tested this today on my 2014 Wrangler with some simulated panic stops on loose surfaces. Key on ABS works as designed. Key in ACC position, no ABS- wheels locked up.
