I totally agree and that's what I did as well. I guess what I'm saying is that my criteria didn't change "daily" as the other guy said. I briefed it daily, discussed it in EP sims and evaluations and just thought it over at zero airspeed. I had certain scenarios that I knew were going to result in me pulling the handles if I encountered them. The reasons for making that big decision can't "change daily", IMO. Change your criteria enough and it'll get muddled up in the heat of battle.
