I recall after the JL Manchester fire trying diligently in the simulator to follow the new official line about turning according to the wind after an RTO. I am sure I wasn't alone in concluding that, with Auto-RTO brakes set, the window of opportunity to turn before grinding to a halt was very small if you wanted to avoid exiting the side of the runway. To give yourself a chance of achieving the new goal you would have to get rid of the autobrake at a higher speed, but this seemed to me a poor trade off, autobrake making it so easy to steer without tap dancing on the rudder and brake pedals.
There is nothing wrong in considering the wind direction, after all the fire could occur in much less extreme circumstances, in which case, by all means pirouette as much as you like, but in an RTO, stop straight ahead as quickly as possible and don't let anything get in the way of that. The AAIB recmmendations gave an unfortunate balance; they put the turning top of the list which gave it more importance than it needed. They did mention stopping on the runway first, but it was third on the list and didn't mention 'As fast as possible'. The reissued CAA FODCOM redresses the balance a bit.
