If the A320 is anything like Boeing, there is a bleed 'debit' to the max rating - the more bleed you pull of the engine, the lower the max rating (to protect EGT and rotor redlines). EAI takes a significant amount of bleed.

Since EAI is normally only used at lower temperatures, on some engines the EAI debit is zero unless the OAT is above some limit.
