Just don't jump the gun.This is airbus procedure for EFATO and not my creation. I am talking about EFTO. During EFATO while applying ECAM there is no possibility of imbalance when every thing was balanced few minutes ago. So complete your other procedures, take your decisions. If you are landing in 30 minutes all that you say is not going to happen and as it is imbalance during landing is not life and death situation in airbus. Also fuel does not get balanced instantly you need time for that. But if your OEI flying time is going to be considerable then your need for that fuel itself is greater than any requirement of balancing and should make you apply the necessary procedure.
