Clandestio,
Can be overcome by dispatcing with a destination that is within the 1,67 planning margin when dry, but not when cont.
Now, due to the contamination, the runway is "below minima", and you dispatch with 2 alternates. Whopla, suddenly you're into "operational" requirements, not "planning" requirements.
Sad but true - and has happened!
