The rocket equation says nothing about how much acceleration you're going to get. It relates fuel mass and exhaust velocity to payload mass and delta-v. The 'tyranny' isn't 'you didn't accelerate fast enough and you will not go to space today', it's 'for a given rocket exhaust speed capability, there is a maximum payload you can possibly lift to a target delta v (i.e. to a target orbit or planet or whatever), no matter how much fuel you throw at the problem'.
