Fair enough and every circumstance is different. I do take your points.

In Denver a few years ago an aircraft was ordered to refect his takeoff by ATC and did so at high speed (Denver being a high elevation airfield one inevitably has high ground speeds on takeoff even if significantly below V1) This resulted in a brake overheat and flat tyres and an unexpected night stop. The cause was a Lufthansa doing a goaround on the parallel runway. Had the aircraft known the reason for the ATC call he would have continued but he didn't. I believe ATC there have reviewed the case and it would not happen again in the same situation.
