Fully agree, I wrote the "panic" part only for a bit of self-mockery.

Also the same goes for drastic attitude oscillation, i.e., trying push down the nose first and then yanking up the nose in a go-around is a big no-no.

So it really helps me and probably everyone less experienced, if we prepare mentally for a planned go-around, rather than a landing, because we will handle the throttle, rudder carb heat, stick, flaps, etc. smoothly.
