I'm not sure that's the best reply when your customers cancel flights due to safety concerns.
I've flown out of similar places, however, the crossing was never near the takeoff point, most were in the first 1000 feet of the runway. You feel the bump when you go over the other runway, and most were a lot closer to 90 degree intersections. As the plane was still far from ready to fly, it was a bump, bigger than the expansion joints, and certainly not around Vr where the bump would feel the plane get very light, but not leave the ground.
