Dead right! The complication of the procedure shows in the seconds available, some extremely rapid decisions and thought processes must be taken, whilst being peppered with chicken carcases! As a long time 737 pilot, I can fully understand the decision to go around for several reasons, as well as a decision to land ahead. Following a decision (b), one then has to take another decision what configuration should you use for landing. In literally an instant.

I admire their handiwork. Awful situation, well handled.
