Avoiding people with too vibrant ideas probably one of the only useful bits of advice in this thread. Follow the technique dictated by your training department until you've established a workable routine, but it should be minor tweaks of the standard technique.

The FCTM says 'when best adapted, the pilot will RAPIDLY retard all thrust levers', none of this unhooking and walking them closed nonsense. VAPP should be adjusted according to external conditions, margin on VLS and experience. Adding 2kts arbitrarily is just extending the landing roll with poor technique.

Stop inventing this rubbish and certainly stop passing it on to others as advice as it won't be consistently repeatable, you're not flying a cessna any more.
