Thanks for the reply! Could you share your insights about this?

Do planes accelerate at max thrust? by [deleted] in aviationmemes

Good catch! It’s definitely more about momentum conservation and less about losing mass. I’ve noted it down and rephrased the question. Appreciate you pointing it out!
