Keep an angle? I don't get that. Only reason I can think to decline a false start is so if they punt it it will go into the endzone.
Reason to decline encroachment would be if you had were attempting PAT or FG to stay out of a mud puddle or somthing.

He meant that the defense may want to decline a false start penalty if the ball was on a hash at the 1 yard line. This is a severe angle for the kicker. If they were back at the 6 then this would be an easier kick.
It doesn't happen often but there are certain situations, usually on kicking downs, where dead-ball penalties are much more likely to be declined.

Ahh now I get it, I didn't understand at first, thanks for clearing that up.
