Chopjock,
As always you think you know better than those who actually do the job. However, most of us tend to operate the aircraft in accordance with the manufacturer's certificated performance procedures, even those of us not operating for public transport (where it is usually mandatory). It is sometimes a condition of the aircraft insurer (and therefore a requirement / condition of maintaining one's employment status with the operator) and it is always a condition of a CAA congested area written permission.
