I really don't get the issue here... Plain and simple, if you activate abs, you would have started to lose traction without it which would increase your stopping distance. Abs tries to keep you from losing traction to have a more controlled stop. If you don't want abs to engage then don't lose traction and use proper brake control. Abs is for when you **** up. Now if you are trying to slide, then I can see why you wouldn't want abs.
