I agree, ATC emergency messages should be just that and not combined with other information.

Message should be clear and brief.

A message such as "EZ 123: cancel take-off clearance" is not clear and does not convey a sens of urgency

Why not say something like "EZ 123: STOP AND HOLD NOW" repeated twice

Same for go arounds': "EZ 123: GO AROUND NOW" "EZ 123: GO AROUND NOW"

when crew acknowledges, ATC can go on with further instructions: "EZ 123: maintain 3000 heading 180...." or "EZ 123: take-off clearance runway 27..."
