What several posters are pointing out is that there is specific authorised information about the use of reverse, the idea that one should use asymmetric reverse to regain directional control is contrary to that.
The mel item allows one reverse inop. It does not mean that you would play around trying to stear using asymmetric power! Further the manuals clearly state if directional control is lost to cancel reverse, this will apply whether one TR is inop or not.
You qoute Sioux City as part of your defence.....WTF? That is clearly not the same. and has no relevance to this incident.
You accuse others of not reading correctly, perhaps you should take a close look at your own behaviour.
