.. and I would think it quite imprudent, on any obstacle critical departure ... to accept any ATC clearance which differs from the tracking embodied in the escape procedure as published by the ops engs guys and gals ...

In Oz we have a couple of such runways .. and ATC are most obliging ... even when the SID is declined in favour of the escape tracking requirements ..
