PJ2:

True, those discussions can be very beneficial.

One potential hazard, at least with some other A-320 go-arounds/balked landings is that pilots sometimes fail to put the thrust levers all the way forward to the TOGA detent, and/or don't check the FMA on the PFD.
Not verifying modes on the Airbus PFD or on the B-757 resulted in serious problems.
One A-320 almost hit the ground after a go-around at LAS, due to various crew coordination issues.

Some confusing situations or incidents involved highly-experienced pilots who fly the A-330.
