From: I wouldn't know.
With a fixed derate you use legally an engine with that lower thrust limit and the corresponding speeds. Especially Vmcg (minimum control speed ground) and Vmca (minimum control speed air) are based on the thrust setting.

If you increase the thrust beyond the fixed derate limit and your speed is near the approved Vmcg/a you might lose control as the controls cannot cope with that amount of thrust at that low a speed.
