Use the ECAM flap setting, if required for abnormal operations.

Also, the table in the QRH is for a 2.1% gradient. What if you need more than 2.1%? A heavy A321 can be limited at some airports.
What if you don't have the required gradient for a go-around with config 3, but you have the required gradient with config 1+F? Would you land with config full anyway and have a back-up plan in case of a single engine go-around or would you land with config 3 without having to worry about your go-around gradient in case of a single engine go-around?
Genuine question. Or am I just overthinking this?
