I don't think anyone ever said Abyssal == Allied in the sense that the whole game is a retake on Axis vs Allied, but rather that the Abyssal ships are taken/inspired from the Allied ships (as opposed to Axis ships).

Just look at the Abyssal mooks' equipment. Inch (instead of cm), Mark (instead of Kai), and the various enemy planes like Flying Fish, Cat Fighter, Revenge Torpedo Bomber, etc. If anything, the introduction of Iowa and Warspite supports the idea that initially the Abyssal ships are inspired from the Allied ships, at least until the game got big and the Princesses start popping up.
