VMCA as described would actually happen somewhere between 10 ft above the runway and 2-300 ft, ie between positive rate-gear up and flap up on the take off run, segment 2 or there abouts.

if one could not retract the landing gear or asymmetric flap condition the aircraft would more than likely lose directional control above the published VMCA.
