During climb EGT excedance = remove the engine. During TO it is just a borescopy.
First of all, this is not true. If you have EGT exceedance when operating at CLB, CRZ or CON thrust and it is less than 930°C and less than 5 min, there is no maintenance action at all.

Second, as long as your EGT stays below the limit for maximum continuous thrust (895°C), you can operate the engine at that thrust for as long as you want.

Ask a friendly engineer when you have a time and they will explain you the process of determining what kind of inspection is required after certain limit exceedances.

Some engines are 5min some operators have 10min limitation.
Engines are the same, the only different is what is written in the AFM.
