The answers to the question must take account of two things; the type of pilot and the type of aircraft. Some types just don't lend themselves to wheelers.
My view is that whichever type of landing you choose you will still have a period of time when you are at risk. I prefer to limit that risk by reducing the exposure time.
This means for gusty and crosswind conditions a steep approach with side-slip, flare and three-point landing.
If, during the flare full rudder is required, then the wind is too cross and another runway or field is the selected.
The flare, is completed slightly quicker than normal due to the wind gradient and the increased energy required from the steeper approach. The ground roll is reduced because the speed is as slow as it can be at touchdown.
That's just my preference.
