You ask the question then you dispute the answer. Check your AIP and the next Captain who argues the point with you spell it out for him. The 200 below 3 within 10 CAN BE WAVED with the words "keep the speed up". Also if your min. clean speed exceeds 200 kts.(which is the case with most airliners) you will not be violated. Good idea to let ATC know though. 'nough said!
