I think you are spot on Moggiee. I can't exactly recall the number of missed approach/go arounds I was involved in as operating crew in my 33 years of aviation career but being based in Asia, flying in Typhoon conditions, they were more than I can count on ten fingers. An MOR was submitted on every occasion and not one of them were ever questioned. The decision to go around was in the majority our own alone. It might be worth to mention, that just about every PC or refresher program in the simulator includes at least one engine out missed approach and go -around and the missed approach briefing on every flight before top of descent in real life.
