1, you’ve already been told that you cannot just disengage approach mode in the 737.
2, if you go around above a lower MAA then you’ll be descending anyway.
3, I’m sure ATC won’t mind if I descend to 1499’ before I go around to 1500’, would they?

In a climb when ATC tell you to climb 350 and your at 330 do you go through 350 and then descend back to 350?? Would make no sense would it. ATC might have words to say as well.
Stupid comment.
