JAA 2 secs lapse to react?

Hi all,

Apparently 2 seconds reaction time is "credited" to a pilot when he decides to abort or continue the T/0.
My question is from the "distance to accelerate" formula (Vsquared/2a),if 2secs allows a speed increase of lets say 5 knots..the t/o distance has increased by 10%!!!
Is this extra t/o distance taken into account when given V1 figure?

Safe flying,
