Na lang zoeken heb ik de basis info terug gevonden.(zie hieronder)
Hieruit blijkt voor mij dat deze optie wel degelijk een positieve uitwerking heeft.
Maar een ieder is uiteraard vrij in zijn mening.

Better ground pickup when you are using Marklin s-88 or like.
It is a little trouble when you run train slow, when you use the rail to detect train.
It is because you miss 50% ground pick up to the train.
If you want your train to run better in slow speed, is it a very easy way to fix it.
Just connect a simple diode on every input on the s-88 box.
You can use a simple 1N4002 (1N4002-7). Connect the marked side on the diode in direction to the s-88, and the other end to brown-masse.
If the track are get occupied without train on the track, have you connected it wrong way, just turn it.
Way it works.
The s-88 detect only the negative voltage. That mean, we can put in the positive voltage from ?brown? on the signal track and not get trouble with the detection to the s-88.
The Digital voltage is ?AC?, so when you loos the negative voltage, will the train run just a little bit slower. More than you need to move the train to get ground from the right wheel
.
And one more ting you get in the same time is better protection from electric noise.

Hi Nils,
Now I have tried it out. It works perfectly. I have even covered one rail with adhesive tape ? no problem !.
Tack!
