Guys, the missed approach procedure is not designed for commercial airlines but for every kind of aircraft, even a c150 full load on a 40° celsius day.
You follow the radial climbing to 2700 and turn at 5 dme, but, if for any reason (emergency), you don't have 1250' by 5 dme you keep following the radial until 1250' then turn to vor; this is the meaning of the procedure; it may sound as bad wording, but actually is correct because fits all the possible situation.
By the way, do some math and will see that the distance from the MAP to the 5 dme point at 1250 baro is more or less 2,5% climb.
