On the ER at 412T, the aircraft will roll away on a level surface at idle.
This aircraft would have been around the 230-250T mark and you'd be trying to slow the bugger down not trying to speed it up.
Exactly the same issue for the -400ERF and P&W engines, even with 3 engines running at 280-300t the thing gets up to 30kts with idle.
