Maybe to further clarify...that the flight testers and factory determined that brake energy limits (failure of brakes) and chances of blowing tires are minimal when aborting a take off at max gross weight V1 or less...I would like to believe that if V1 is hypotheticaly 110 knots, that landing with the same wieght at a legal and specified 125kts...might tend to make the case that brake energy limits might not be problem untill well exceeding 125 kts..That said, if one can determine by having actualy flown the plane a few times on landing how much runway ahead it typicaly needed to stop a plane, being 15 knots slower at time of abort should make that descion a tad easier...So I doubt stopping an aircraft 10-15 kts slower then your landing speed will create catostrauphic brake failures....
