What is the rationale of increasing the VAPP up up VLS+15 in the FMGS when the function of GS mini is supposed to take care of that as opposed to conventional aircraft? It’s still an option or recommendation in FCOM.

I punched in an extra 3 knot, and for the whole approach the target speed remained as such, it didn’t increase with gusts along the runway axis as I have been used to seeing all this while, but it’s the first time I manually adjusted the VAPP in the FMGC. Did put me in the unstable criteria for a long while because if this.

I was on the CEO.
