Qlink Cobham 717s payload limited

Why is it such a big surprise there are performance limitations out of CB. So 3.2% is the net gradient used for the CDP meaning you need 4.0% to get off 35 OEI. Given that's a fair bit more than the 2.4% min I'm surprised any jet can get off at mtow. From memory the jet I fly drops about 40t off mtow at about 25deg.
