Could you explain how "thinking for yourself" could have produced a better result for this exact set of circumstances then following the Boeing SOP for an engine failure after V1 ?

From what I could see there was nothing especially unusual about this case. Yes the engine failed in a nasty place but from my POV simply following the "book" actions would have caused the the aircraft to climb to safe height after which a routine single engine landing would have been prepared for and executed.

What am I missing ?
