A 51% attack on ABC chain is difficult, but orphaning blocks and replaying txs is more easy.

Even if SV's hashpower was equal, SV would be inclined to mine their own transactions and keep new block time as close as possible to 10 min instead of using their wasting it on ABC

Orphaning would only happen if SV's hashpower >= ABC thereby allowing SV to mine empty/erroneous blocks quicker than ABC hence forming the longest proof of work chain. Seems unlikely

For a feather attack they don't need suck hashpower. It was explained by a memo user a few days ago.

Missed that. If only memo had search...

Gosh I need to bring Memo up to speed. SV has 60-70% of the hashrate. https://blockchair.com/bitcoin-cash/blocks

Despite that, the futures market on Poloniex maintains a 80-20 distribution in ABC's favour

Think that is because the ABC proponents have not pushed their hashpower over to BCH.
