I think you have it the wrong way around. Why would you want to retard timing on acceleration??
less vacuum on the unit allows it to spring back to a more advanced state then when your off the throttle the increased vacuum works on the actuator to retard timing.

Nope, he has got it correct.
Vac advance is there to advance the engine while cruising only.
Sure it does it at idle (ive seen some that dont though), but thats just a side effect.
If you dont have vac advance while cruising, the car feels like crap and you chew a lot of fuel.
Ive played with this stuff quite a lot...
