(a) SID has naught to do with OEI. Hence has naught to do with segments and acceleration heights. Climb requirement is a straight geometric thing. Not immediately easy to overlay an engine failure procedure on a SID. Is the aircraft going to meet the SID OEI ? ... one needs to do the full OEI escape calculations to establish that ...

(b) refer (a).

In general, SIDs and OEI don't mix and match. SID is intended to be an AEO procedure.
