Some of the CVR

About several hundred posts ago peekay4 (IIRC) showed an analysis of the CVR 30-minutes duration after the go around (using evidently reliable time-stamp information). Wasn't it shown that of the 30 minutes of recorded data potentially available, 19 of those minutes had been consumed by necessity in the go around, second approach, landing and taxiing to the gate? This is not meant to excuse or otherwise deflect attention away from the fact that the CVR such as it was, was not preserved. But it is important as a matter of factual background and context to include this detail, that only roughly the final one-third of the 30 minutes would have been available in any event, just because of the aborted landing. Is this not so?
