From: last time I looked I was still here.
The reply to the query “… if I want to add a couple of knots to my approach speed” could be:-

‘What’s the correction to the landing distance?’

Is the landing roll not effected more by ground speed at touchdown than approach speed in the air? Notice I said roll because of course distance includes a short air distance where the excess speed is being bled off.
