Good question and yes if you want to do near 100% water changes a week but even then you would still get depletion of trace elements in between the water changes where as with the TM system these vastly depleted elements are re introduced to your system on a daily basis through dosing.
Something also to remember you need the free NACL in your tank combined with the ABC to make up NSW not just ABC alone. I missed that point in the quote from your post. So NSW is essentially NACL + ABC (in specific proportions)
