The off-topic part:
By their definition F and S are the retraction speeds after takeoff. Also used for manoeuvring during approach.
When flying well below S speed on purpose, the G/A scenario gets very ugly as explained. I heard once that EU's largest A319 operator insists on F2 below S, I assume the above to be the reason.
With my employer, keeping conf 1 is a no-bicscuits time as well, no matter that being the sensible choice.
