The latter is the issue. Once you've touched down and dumped the rpm, it's all down to the brakes. There is no way back.

Can see it's probably fine if you're in the approach still with power on, but does mean you've got to carry enough fuel for a go-around - part of the bringback?

Still concerns me, but it seems to be being taken very seriously, which is good. Just as a bit of context, ISTR the first murmurings on SRVL were actually back in 2001 ish.
