Indeed, for a B737 (the global largest jet fleet) it is the easier way, due to strong pitch/power couple and non-augmented flight controls. I have no opinion on other types which would be relevant to this particular thread.
Are you saying that you use pitch for speed on final in a 737? No experience on the type, so genuinely curious.
