That's just the problem! You keep talking about something you (think) you heard or read about in a conference in Dubai. I think you're misinterpreting something you heard or read!
When I read that a SID requires a 7 % climb gradient up to 3600 ft, I am pretty sure that means that you're NOT supposed to go below a 7 % imaginary slope extending up from the runway end up to an altitude of 3600 ft.
So, once again, please provide a link (URL or document with chapter, paragraph or page) to what you're saying so that I
CAN read it for myself. I'm not happy with a statement such as "that what has been said at certain conference somewhere...

"
