When it’s continuous moderate so you can’t hold onto the knobs on the FGC and American comes blasting up at you doing 6000 FPM and chases you off with an RA but ATC still wants you to make all the restrictions that’s different though. Thx Boston.

And don’t let anyone convince you to wait until 2500 FPM or something to start down. That sucks and is both unsafe and uncomfortable.
2500 fpm is nothing... I literally do this every day.
