If you take the first availabe in short field type aircraft you will get screamed at because you will be in the middle of the out bound q and will have a hellva job getting through the outbound taxing aircraft.

Only time i have seen it done from sitting the q to depart they ended up putting the aircraft back on the runway and sending them up to the first high speed turn off. It was a right mess with ops vehicles everywhere as they couldn`t get a triple past them at the exit hold.

And some would say that ensuring the safety of your aircraft is being a professional pilot. And standing on the brakes and not being able to depart again inside your allocated turn around time due hot brakes will get you a trip to the CP without coffee
