Also a useful procedure if your contingency procedure states an early turn with V2 and you want to accelerate and clean up after turn is completed
WAY too many buttons to push! Simply open up the speed window!

In our 774/748 fleet we ALWAYS use TOGA with VNAV armed for takeoff. I can remember only 2 instances in 10 years on the 744 when TOGA failed to engage and I had to place the thrust levers manually.
