Agree with Carl here; at the moment you rotate, there is a brief discovery process that determines whether the numbers you're using are correct. It doesn't matter then where a mistake was made, it just matters that you're validating the process in a very short period, with your capable hands and your superior judgement.
A rotation is an analog event, not a digital process.

I just don't think it's very appropriate to try to slam your tail skid on the way out, onto something you tried to kiss ever so subtly on the way in. I figure a runway should only be faintly aware of my departure by the void it feels until my next gentle, soft visit.
Love your runway, and your runway will faithfully welcome you back.

True. Using the logic applied to takeoffs, we should all just chop the power at 50 feet, maintain Vref+5 until impact and apply maximum braking and reverse thrust until a complete stop on a 2 mile long runway. Because someday when its raining in LGA we'll just float all they way down to the end and into the drink.
