If you were a dive and drive operator you'd want the 'proper' MDA would you not?
Normally on these PANS-OPS5 approaches you cannot 'dive and drive' as terrain separation is based on the published descent angle.
CANPA is not much harder on a old-fashioned aircraft. ALT vs. DME using V/S will do the trick just fine.
