there comes a speed to which it's better to take your problem airborne, for several factors

Basically what ole baw did.
don't know what happened yet, so no armchair qbing, but ole baw has put his military career, certainly the flying part, in jeopardy, not to mention a tidy little repair bill coming up

But this seems just flat out fricking stupid. Oh hey you lost an engine. It's cool though. Proceed with your takeoff
There is a point on the runway at a certain speed that you aren't going to hit the brakes and have a good outcome.

Idk... Abort take off? Stay grounded? Not go way up in the sky on one engine?
All aircraft have to perform to a certain standard to recieve FAA or equivalent certification. One of those standards is performing a takeoff with an engine inoperative. Search the new 787 problem. Single engine ops over extended areas require ETOPS, another standard, and the 787 May lose ETOPS certification with certain engines.
If the you abort the takeoff past V1, there is a good chance you will run off the end of the runway. Other factors play in the V1 number but critical field length is generally the biggest factor.

Must've been a bad software patch, right?
