What is laughable about it? Reduced thrust reduces the climb gradient somewhat, and in the event of an engine failure, it is reduced substantially. Are you really saying that having a lesser climb gradient is as safe as having a greater one? My point is that light frost has, and I quote, "has about the same impact on safety margins as a reduced thrust takeoff" (in reality, I would guess that light frost on the spoilers has
no measurable effect, as the airflow is turbulent at that point anyway). Instead of responding with words like "drivel" and "laughable", how about something more substantive?
