The earlier forum discussion also mentioned that a jet can have a Critical Engine due to loss of systems, IE if the landing gear is on one system and the associated engine fails, the extended time taken for the auxillary pump to retract the gear in the first segment is used for certification. The engine is declared as such in the AFM.
