I can see why it would cause problems if the esc was initialising with the resistor in the way (now that i think about it) but not sure why it would with the esc turned off. I don't know how the MMM works and what the switch is switching so I have no clue really.

If the resistor is inline ONLY when the ESC is switched off, then no, it won't cause a problem.
It will cause some huge voltage spikes (and possibly damage the ESC) if the resistor is inline during initialization...
BUT, to be safe, just don't do it.
Just say no to the inline resistor.
