Mr Horgy,
I'm still curious about this thing about the tone of the controller.If you landed on 16 and could have vacated down 32/A4,it causes real problems for Ground getting you into Stand 1-5 against the flow.Also there is a major confliction with the helis.Tower are trying to help you.
If you landed on 34 and could make 23/D2,it isn't always possible.There could be a heli holding at C3,and Tower must co-ordinate that with GMC.If they say no then forget it.Also you come into conflict with helis landing on 32.
In any case Tower told you to continue rolling.Standard R/T.Vacate at whatever taxiway.Unless you say what chastising you got,I can only presume that the controller used standard R/T to get you off the runway ASAP.If that was the case,then there is no case to answer.
I'll try an get a EC225 heli to chase the 738 down the ILS.Probably catch up inside 5nm.
