All joking aside (and I was shit-stirring before, honest), I'd suggest
that pilots would be best served by following whatever their flight
manual says.
We don't treat flight manual details like VNE, Max AUW or Max
Maneuvering as advisory concepts that are open to negotation. We
shouldn't treat the flight-manual bits that talk about what to do
when ditching as mere recommendations either.
