This sounds really good, but it's not true. Anti-dive will effect how a lifted rig with big tires handles on the road, and can (should to a degree) be a concern, but has little to do with trail performance. The forces are minimal at slow trail speeds, and traction, rather than braking behavior, is the real issue.
Few of us have problems with traction in the front on boulder fields or ledges, it's the steep climbs that make a difference.* Here weight transfer has a large effect, as well as how well the rear axle stays planted. Anti-squat in the rear will have a MUCH bigger effect on climbing performance than how much anti-dive is in the front. Since weight transfer is the big issue, a limiting strap helps out, and will mask any small effect of too much anti-dive/lift/pitch in the front. Basically, running an adjustable limiting strap on the front negates the point of most of these arguments that have to do with traction. Street/road handling is still an issue, though, especially on rigs with tall lifts.
Unloading also has a big effect on traction on steep climbs, and there are many factors that contribute to unloading. Too much anti-dive/pitch can have an effect, but there isn't always enough traction in the front to get those forces involved. Spring height and spring force at full droop will effect unloading, where the spring can push up too much at close to full suspension extension in the front. In my opinion, too long of an arm can contribute to unloading. The weight of the front axle will pull down on the chassis to some degree, especially when the suspension is at or close to full extension, and the longer the arms are the further back on the chassis this weight is applied, further effecting weight transfer on steep climbs. Of course, again, a limiting strap will change the point at which this weight is applied, moving it much further forward, and virtually negating the argument.
* Front link suspensions inherently climb (in the front) better than leaf springs because the links tend to push the tire into the obstacle, creating more traction.
