If this information is attributed correctly to Airbus (and not someone else), it's quite interesting especially as the Brazilian authorities apparently have not released anything of that kind of detail.

However, 200 m or 655 feet would be in the ballpark of the wet MED autobrake calculation done in the thread (that gave ca. 540 feet as the safety marging).
