Hi che ci dō che ci dō!

I've attached the original oeb-189-1.pdf, which explains it better.

The FMGC calculates an approach from 50 ft above the runway threshold, backwards. In some cases, it mistakenly calculated from 50ft at the MAP - which if before the runway, would put you below the published profile - hence the warning.
