Continued flight perfectly reasonable if IAW QRH and manufacturers/company policy.

And yes, some windshields are tougher than others.
L1011 for example.
Cracks develop enroute...no restrictions whatsoever.
No lower flight level.
No lower speed.
Nada. Zip. None.

TriStar, built to a slightly higher standard.
