That sounds a lot like correcting a consistent slice in your golf swing by aiming 30° off from where you want the ball to go. What I mean is, if you are consistently giving a spurt of thrust in your flare then you are consistently retarding the thrust levers too early and you are better off correcting the underlying fault in your technique rather than adding an extra something to try and make it work.
