I fly to many destinations where the missed approach climb gradient is in excess of 8%. In some cases as high as 12%. If you are making an approach and lose an engine you are not doing the standard missed approach. What you’re probably going to do is fly the engine failure procedure. And as Denti states, this will have been calculated and briefed during the cruise.

Just as an aside to this, no airline I have flown for in over 25 years has has EOSIDs in the FMS.
