Concluding my laymans point of view.....
Whenever I bring a 737 into EDI (normally a -400, that's the bigger one than easyjets) with a full load, Autobrake 2, thrust reverse (first detent) and Flap 30 are enough to make the turn off. Can't remember any times when someone has had to backtrack.......
Maybe they were trying to save money by using a lower brake setting. Didn't say much for their airmanship though.......
