Do not confuse the engines capability with the legal requirements. If you are using Flex as your takeoff thrust, then you can only PLAN to use it for 5 or 10 minutes (depending on which option you purchased). Also remember that your takeoff performance is based upon that thrust rating and there is no requirement to increase the thrust in the event of an engine failure.
