I tried to use sarcasm but there seems to be a bit of "technique" battle going on here. Let's get a couple of things in front first.

1. The most basic goal of each landing is to safely get the airplane on the ground and stopped within the confines of the runway.

2. Boeing and Airbus both sell airplanes with a pitch of what the maximize load capability of their airplanes is capable of.

3. Most normal landings are not runway length limited.

4. Landing flaps and auto brake selection are determined based on economies and performance needs.

5. Runway short, wet, contaminated, MEL, equipment malfunctions, wind, WX, terrain considerations, and more are how pilots determine what to select.

6. Fuel use (and approach noise) is the last consideration by the Pilot in Command when deciding which flap and autobrake settings they should use.

7. There is no "blanket" or "one size fits all" methodology.
