In all seriousness, the only reason I top wrap from time to time is I think it looks cool... eace2
When I get tired of it I go back to regular stringing.
I haven't noticed that much of a difference sonically and in terms of playability
And like you in many cases, I would find the aesthetics the greatest (but not only) difference between the two methods.
The difference in how it feels may be different for everyone and their guitars of course, but the physical explanations do exist which make a difference (however large or small).
Personally I don't think it gives good break angle, unless your action is very high that the abr-1 is very high off the body.
Same reasons I like normal teles more than the top loader variants.
