Fix three amigos vs. upgrade braking system

Has anyone with the three amigos just considered getting rid of the ABS controller? I was considering ditching the ABS controller, and my three amigos, and replacing the brake booster with an upgraded one with the hopes of also ditching the Disco's spongy brakes? Ideas? Harsh critiques? Glowing compliments? Love?

I've replaced the ABS solenoid and all rotors and pads to no avail. But why do we all try to get rid of the three amigos? What do offroaders gain from ABS? Wouldn't a better investment be an upgraded master cylinder?

Sorry, I've also properly bled the brakes. A vast improvement over before, but still nothing like literally any other non-Land Rover car.

Because on the road ABS is a nice feature..and most of us mainly drive on the road..plus the traction control is a nice feature off road, providing of course it is working correctly.. What code are you getting..??

ABS on road is a nice feature but I drive like a grandma anyways for MPG reasons, I'm never going fast enough to hit anyone lol. But I'm not sure of the exact ABS codes I'm getting as I don't have an ABS reader. With my code reader I'm only getting the p1590.
