I see your point AP, but I'd question the credentials of someone who sets such a task as an example of a commercial operation. Unless it is for a specific task or reason, it has absolutely no place in the real world. But if you really have to do it, do as you said, climb to the overhead and depart. But be prepared, quite rightly, to be criticised by an examiner. You also have the choice of taking off and turning towards this precious track, giving yourself something like a 45 degree intercept. At the same time make a time allowance of say one second per degree of turn.
