With 1,000s of hours on 767 & 757 I always use flaps 30 and auto brakes 3 no matter what the situation. Doing it any other way would require I think about the situation.
Oh and who cares what the FM and the FOM say because they are just "guidelines" anyway. Besides which only "weak" sticks use them as a crutch for their lack of skill and airmanship.
