From a practical viewpoint, Boeing, in training material, suggests very strongly that, if the aircraft is not in the process of being stopped by V1 .. then you ought to continue in a limiting accel stop situation. Allowing for the normal liability considerations, I read that to infer a very definite advice to go, rather than stop, other things being equal, as one approaches V1.

I still have a very real concern when people keep talking about takeoff performance like it is all black and white. Shades of grey need considered thought on a take off by take off basis by the crew to assess what might be a good application of the procedures on any given occasion. Such consideration necessarily must lean very heavily on flight manual and company operations manual guidance.
