Thanks for taking the time, I quote:

The aircraft has a negative weathercock stability on the ground, that is, in a crosswind take off it tends to yaw further out of wind. The critical engine is therefore, on the downwind or lee side.

I'm with you, it seems not to fit the classic critical engine definitions I remember from my four-prop days!
