Initiate the go-around above the MDA(H) - constant descent-angle technique - if no visual references are acquired, in order not to “duck under” the MDA(H).
Much consternation, it seems.
All this can be avoided, of course, if one uses a sensible alternative, dive/drive....IE, fly a short level segment, from which a go-around does not require adding an altitude 'buffer'.

It would appear that certain companies/regulatory authorites have made all this much more complicated than it actually needs to be.

No surprise there.
After all, how else would they justify their salaries?
