The 900'/1100' RA suppression is a technical feature of the system. My company does not select TA only for parallel approaches (CDG, AMS) and I do not recall hearing about a problem. FRA, BRU, SVO the same, albeit those are not parallel approaches de facto. LHR (LED..) to my knowledge do not operate in parallel at all.
