It may save the 12 v battery from discharge, but wouldn't the cars always on systems be cut off power, which is what I am trying to avoid?

It is to prevent discharge of the 12v battery on "normal" cars. I guess it would not help with what you describe, but would protect against a totally "dead" car that will not start.
