Ah, so... Well it did,
indeed, sound convincing when you described it - and for a reason, obviously!
The 737 is an index-finger job. Please allow me unpedanticise my earlier comment, then...
On the topic, not sure about the 330 procedures but some operators insist on climbing at Vref30 (or whatever) plus your additive, until reaching the MAP Altitude, and only then accelerating. This may have added to the "steep" effect.
Yes, a go-around is fun. I like it because we hardly ever do them and it wakes the pax up to the fact they are in an aircraft, not a bus (even on an airbus).
