So is there any difference between ABR set to a higher bit rate and VBR
with
the quality set to the highest?

Yep, there would be a difference but the higher the ABR then the smaller the
difference between the resulting file and that encoded using high quality
VBR. For example, if you set your ABR to 300kbps then ABR would steal a
little from less
That's pretty much how I reckon it should be but the only changes I'd make is
set VBR method to old - if better quality is what you want and you're prepared
to wait a little longer - and perhaps have several VBR profiles or presets,
each one having a different VBR quality setting, say one for

As I understand it, encoding with a varriable bit rate takes a lot longer as
the encoder looks at every sample of the song thus deciding what bit rate it
should be encoded at, silence
I've never seen any evidence to suggest that encoding at too high a bit
rate can result in unwanted artifacts though I do understand that to
broadcast in high bit rate is obviously more challenging in terms of
available bandwidth and so this may be a consideration.

Okay, I just consulted an audio engineer abut what you wrote about minimum
bit rates for VBR encoding and here's his response, it also talks about
setting VBR quality and I'll have a few words to say about this after
