ATSB missed a good opportunity to emphasise the need for the PF to plan on rotating on his own ASI bugged VR and treat the PNF support call of "Rotate" as purely advisory. if the PF reaches his own bugged VR speed but fails to get a support call from the PNF for whatever reason, he simply rotates (a quick glance at the ground speed indication is wise at that point). There should be no confusion and the problem sorted out at a safe altitude.
Right on the button. Three cheers to that man!
