All the above is true, including punishment for NOT proceeding under these circumstances. But...if something were to go wrong (engine failure, some other unforseen circumstance)....Captain is hung out. "Why did you proceed when you KNEW limits would be exceeded"? You're fine, provided something doesn't happen....if it does, you just bought a 'bad judgment' call. I'm glad my time is over.
