Munk. TDP is not at the point when translational lift takes place, it is a point during take-off when the ability to fly away on a single engine is assured. This could be height and/or IAS related.

Just because you happen to be at or beyond TDP when an engine fails does not necessarily mean that you are obliged to "fly away" with a given Continued Take-off Distance available.

IMHO
