Comments like that make you sound like a complete tosser. It is possible that the crew got a false deviation of the loc by an aircraft crossing the runway.
What they do at SFO you will not find in any FCOM as being a visual approach. It is an ILS approach with the traffic separation handed back to the crew.
LHR and DXB are the busiest 2 runway airports in the world, and they can achieve all their movements without the use of visual approach’s. Those airports also have a higher seat count per movement which is an indicator of the wake separation required.
Love tossing just as much as the next guy. LHR isn't even in the top 10 by movements.
