I think applying ABF pipe to that allowance is a step too far. ABF is
a microbial coating to address MIC. I haven't heard anyone
identifying it as a basic corrosion inhibitor. Also it has a finite
life span.

Since
galvanized pipe is starting to fall out of favor, this will probably
be
used more often to satisfy that particular code section.
