If you tow a car from the front with the wheels turned it would tend to turn but then get dragged against its wishes onto the low loader. The thieves wouldn’t care that the tyres are getting damaged. Have you ever watched a pranged car being dragged onto a low loader?
Then there are those tow trucks that lift the front off the deck. What about those trucks with a crane onboard?
But if turning the steering wheel deters some then go for it. It can’t do any harm and it might just prevent a sloppy thief.
