My understanding is, start stopping at V1 and you go through the fence. (You need to have started stopping by V1). Continue the Take-Off at V1 - 10kts and you cross the fence by 20 feet. Not much, but you cross it. And that assumes total failure of the powerplant.

Of course, runway length is a factor. If you are Vr limited, stop. If you are otherwise limited with a V split, god speed. (Or not speed)

I (on a short runway) agree with coming around for a whole runway, fire brigade in force, low speed landing.

Plus, you have the whole circuit to plan your legal defense.
