Wet runway accelerate-go data provide for a screen height of 15ft at the end of the takeoff distance and only provide that you will make V2 at 35ft at an unspecified further distance down the road. Not much visible margin there. Would you really get a useful load increase out of the thinking time in the stop case?

Operating on private ops using unfactored landing data, I can tell you there is no margin in "advisory" landing distances using "average pilot" techniques either (we used to practice performance landings on empty legs.) I definitely only use (below) average pilot skill and technique and my results are anecdotal but I suspect your V1 aborts would be equally unrepresentative of the certification requirements including worn brakes &c

I personally would bank the increase in safety margin your system would create but I doubt anyone would develop it on that basis.
