Gentler transition I suppose. Many airports the A320 operates to aren't limiting as they are designed for heavy wide bodies on hot days. No sense in pulling up too quickly and having a long taxi to the first turn off. The stopping performance is available on shorter strips if needed.

When are we going to see an A320NG with brake to vacate and other technology from the later aircraft ?
