Maybe I have missed same on this thread but I see little reference to the concept of an approach gate. Many operators use 1,000 ft IMC and 500 ft VMC.

If the approach is stable, configured, on centreline/glidepath etc, engines spooled up, on target speed +/- margins then the approach may be continued. If not a Go Around is mandatory.
