The problem I see with presetting the bank angle limit is you are already deciding your failure on takeoff. It is a problem with the majority of sim checking and even departure briefs that we talk about an engine failure at V1. In the sim if you throw an engine failure at a guy at 1000 feet it often completely throws them. Not particularly their fault but just symptomatic of the obsession with V1 cuts. IMHO we should deal with problems as it happens and SOP should direct us to select Bank angle limit of 15 deg when we select the emergency turn heading if required.
