My impression (with ~20h single-engine, so not exactly an authority) is that while they train single-engine operations, they don't really do it at takeoff exactly because you're close to Vmc, the speed where you don't have enough rudder authority with one engine to keep the plane from going out of control, which would have consequences similar to what happened here.
