One needs to ask themselves why an increase in speed is being added for gusts and why you would suddenly not do it just because it is a cross wind. Do those variations in airspeed suddenly stop happening? As for it being a very challenging airport, one might want to plan in advance to lower their own personal limits at this location(asuming they are aware of it's difficulty in advance). Heavy rain and strong crosswind.....that's an issue at any airport.
