I LOVE this take honestly. ACAB can come off as "All police officers everywhere are absolutely horrible people!!!" which can be easily falsified if just one police officer is an actually pretty nice guy that just tries to help people out, rather than abuse power. People can also easily respond back with "Well... MY officer in my town wasn't a bastard to me. He was a chill guy"

On contrast, ACHAP - All Cops Hold Abusable Power, is a much more nuetral and, imo, useful way to look at systematic problems in the police force. It also has much more stable grounds to not be so easily falsified, despite having "All". (which usually makes a lot of statements easily falsifiable).
