I guess the question is, what does "execute a Missed Approach" prior to the MAPt mean in terms of the regs? We know it means immediately track to the MAPt and carry out the published MA.
But does it also mean immediately begin your climb prior to the MAPt?
My instincts would tell me if I was no longer offered the protection of the steps along the IAP flight path, it would be a good idea to start climbing
The reason I ask is because you might be surprised how others I've spoken to have interpreted the regs.
