I hear you. All of those considerations are valid.
The thing that bothers me is all the extra energy (the millions of extra foot/pounds of brake energy) that has to be dissipated when somebody lands with all that extra speed.
And I'm not even trying to suggest that it's dangerous (in 99.99% of landings), it's just that it makes for an ugly, noisy, uncomfortable, graceless, passenger-slinging, hard braking type of roll-out when the fast-landers try to make the first (or second) turnoff.
What is the ideal pee angle when standing at a urinal to prevent splashback?
So, based on these responses, I'm guessing it wouldn't be well accepted to say anything here on Flightinfo about the guy who adds 5 or 10 knots to his callout of the computed V rotate speed?
This is dependent upon the conditions.
For example,it is completely acceptable and common practice in windshear conditions.
