Still, many keep missing the point, which has nothing to do with automation, nothing to do with specific type.

All (except some weirdos) seem to aknowledge the fact that the hand MUST be removed at V1.
The majority seem to aknowledge the fact that this is because our hand in that position is a real danger, as the long list of statistics demonstrate.

Strangely, very few have asked themselves my original question.
Many answers call for AIRMANSHIP as the magic solution to everything, but this is often a comfortable reply for those who don't dig enough.

The fact is that a wrong reaction at a very low altitude IS NOT REVERSIBLE.
That's why we shouldnt put our hand back there below 400ft (same value for the actions in an emergency, for the same reason).
