Wouldn't it be nice if power management for TO was always set to achieve a known acceleration rate, based on R/W length and Vr (or some other speed)? You'd never be in coffin corner for TOGW error, brakes dragging, etc.

yep this is called flex take Off...and you have a stopwatch for acceleration at 100 Kts..
