Anyone seen this question before? It was in the Performance Exam today and though I cant recall it verbatim, it was regarding the benefits of reduced thrust.

Out of the 4 options only 2 were viable,

1) Reduces trip fuel
2) Reduces a limited VMCG.

I can see arguments for both answers, one side you do use less fuel when you use reduced thrust, VMCG could be lower since theres less thrust. Any suggestions?
