It gets worse! They are now in the idle reverse phase ("strongly encouraged"). This combined with marginally achievable high speed exits in the NG. Apparently sidewall failures have increased dramatically, as have brake hydraulic leaks.

Of course, that was after the management mandated phase of Autobrakes "Max" for routine ops for anything even remotely marginal. Only did a handful before the policy was changed, but wow, what a ride... 14 m/s/s is quite a deceleration rate for line ops
