You're correct that ATC shouldn't, and are trained not to, give instructions - especially complex ones - during critical phases but we as pilots can't adopt a finger pointing mentality. The go around path is protected by design and you wont hit anything or anyone if it's flown correctly. Accepting a turn or replying to ATC a few seconds later at the cost of ensuring a safe trajectory will harm nobody.
