eng anti ice on

The A320 manual states Engine Anti ice must be on during all ground and flight operations when icing conditions exsist ,or are anticipated except during climb and cruise when the Sat is below -40C.I am wondering is to do with the nature of ice crystals at temperatures lower than -40C,but like you have written near convective weather significant moisture is there,and i do keep the anti ice on as a precaution,however a lot of training capts point out the sat to me as below -40C.So i needed some hard logic for my action.thanks
