Uplinker,

I would agree for 95% of cases but an uncontained engine fire is the one (main) situation where I think you are justified in deviating from standard if your Immediate Actions dont put out the fire.

Onboard Fire would be the other one. In these two occasions, limits especially max landing weights go out the window as history has shown, these scenarios are true fights for survival.

Not that this applies here, of course.
