You're advocating hitting the deer on the chance you'll have an engine fail as soon as you add power to avoid it.
Actually if you'll re-read, some of those climb gradients are higher than the requirements for landing climb (which is all engines operating). I dug those up since you were getting hung up on my bringing up the engine failure at ASE.
