Modifying published minimums?
I like that description. From memory the RAAF had a similar concept back in the 1950's. Newly graduated pilots were awarded a "White Card" instrument rating that covered all types they may fly. The White Card required 100 feet to be added to the MDA or DH or their equivalent in those days. There was no takeoff minima. If you could see enough to keep straight on the runway you simply went.
By the time the pilot had accrued 500 hours as first pilot (in other words in command) the 100 ft addition to MDA/DH was removed. In addition, it was considered the pilot had accrued enough decision making time (500 true PIC) to have the experience to undertake a zero/zero takeoff. In other words takeoff blind.
