FFS Accelerate Stop Simulation

I’m talking about million $$ Full Flight Simulators, not Microsoft
Recently conducted some tests in a B747 Classic simulator, (Old Smokey, this one came from your part of the world). We calculated a field length takeoff weight for a specific runway, no stopway, clearway using the Boeing Mark 7J computerized takeoff modules.
Approximately 1-2 seconds prior to V1, we conducted rejected takeoffs with all engines, engine out, with and without thrust reverse.
On approximately 10 attempts with various levels of drivers, none of the rejects resulted in the aircraft remaining on the runway~
So what should one determine from this:
1: The UK rebuilt FFS isn’t 100% accurate.
2: A field length limited high speed abort in a Classic 747 will result in the aircraft going off the end of the runway.
