Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
the slings and arrows of outrageous brake lockup
or to take ABS against a sea of troubles

My understanding is that ABS comes into play ONLY in a braking emergency (Is that correct?). Way way back in my racing days (drum brakes) I simply practiced pulse braking all the time in my road car until it became a conditioned response. I didn’t brake hard, I merely pulse-braked at the end of each brake application coming up to every set of Lights etc. It wasn’t a skill that was hard to learn back then but it will be interesting to see how I go after 35 years of automatics and ABS.
