If the EO SID includes the 1300 ft height requirement it probably infers that there are no obstacles of note subsequent to the third segment.

Generally, however, if there are distant obstacles, one does not want to run the acceleration prior to a turn due to the difficulty in pinpointing the turn point.

BOAC's comment re asking the ops engineering folk is quite pertinent.
