Should all seats be upright for landing?

Every time I fly we're told to make sure that seats are upright for landing, and the cabin crew will make sure this is the case.

On a recent flight a passenger kept their seat in the reclined position for landing. I've never seen this happen before and I'm just curious whether this is something that really shouldn't have happened. The cabin crew had ample time to do something - it wasn't put back after they had retreated to their seats - and indeed a flight attendant actually exchanged a few words about something else with the passenger but didn't say anything about the seat.

In case it matters, Canadian registered aircraft and carrier, landing in the UK.
