I removed my front ARB. Standard ones are fine imo, rose jointed ones dont have any advantage for me, just more hastle.

Yea im some ways they are useless but they are full of bling lol, you know.. the kind that youll only ever see in a progress thread ;)

They're so you can take the preload out of the anti-roll bar and get the arb back level so it works properly without destroying joints on low track cars, fine tuning.

It says all that in the link the OP has provided.

It's not quite right in that actually, the preload is in the bar and chassis itself, not against the bushes - the bars are bent and then heat treated so they're rarely straight - I've seen many that had 20mm+ of twist from one side to the other of the car when it was setup on level ground - they're for adjusting that out to reduce the tendancy of the car favouring turning one way over the other (or induce it if you wish, you can make the car favour turning right for a clockwise circuit for example). That and they're a lot stiffer than stock links so the response is more immediate - more noticable on stiff track cars than roadgoing vehicles tbh though.
