I would have thought terrain in the missed is probably the deciding factor.
If your minimum is predicated on achieving a specific approach climb gradient and you mooch on through it waiting for landing clearance then you've put yourself in a position where you will be unable to guarantee terrain clearance in the case of going around with an engine out.
If terrain isn't a issue then it's useful to know the height loss during a go around which is in your AFM.
