It comes up in our "light quad" because if it is hot and we are heavy and we fully flex, the acceleration rate of climb is below the required and rate AND if you bother monitoring the physical gradient, distance vs altitude, it doesn't always make it. Depending on what you fly you may need to be aware of these things.
