I'll agree that the improper setting of the flaps can happen to any CA and FO.

What would not happen to any of us: Selecting flaps 20 above 80 knots to remedy the problem.

What he should of done was abort, follow the company procedures for the abort (telling dispatch, brake cooling, report etc.), set the flaps to 20 and blasted off.

It would have been a lot easier than what they've put up with (and will continue to put up with), now that the report is public.
