Sure want to have that extra electrical power available in case of a go around? Well maybe if we get to an all-electric airliner. Actually a crew would want to reduce electrical load demand in an engine out or generator failure but then again then aircraft will auto-shed to reduce loads in most cases. As a side note: the A-320 that landed on the Hudson River in daylight did quite well until some idiot opened the rear door before looking out!
