From a practical point of view, wouldn't that be overcomplicating things.

If you have the performance to make a takeoff from that runway, in the same prevailing conditions, at your current weight, then aren't you better placed in executing a go around from a missed approach. Even if you decide to reject the landing just before touchdown, you should surely be in a higher energy condition than having started from standstill at the threshold. I realise oddities like displaced thresholds mean this isn't always the case.

Expert comments please.
