With ABS you can slow, steer and stop.
Without ABS you can stop in a straight line.

I had a session on the Mercedes World Stopping Straight. On both wet and dry I stopped in the shortest distance by braking jut to the point of ABS activation, but this was absolutely a "non panic" situation.
Panic braking on both surfaces, and trying to avoid a cone, ABS wins every time.
