I agree. I believe that the airlines should just let the crews fly their aircraft the way that they want and use whatever procedures the crew thinks will work. Your recommendation for landing and achieving the shortest landing distance I'm certain will work well in a B-757/767. Besides, that saves a lot of financial resources for crew training.
