Obviously you understood enough to answer the question.....

Cannot say I agree with you, but that's one of the highwing/lowwing debates. So nice to land a plane on the exact spot you chose when flying downwind, with no power from abeam the numbers. And if you are trying to get onto a real short strip with lots of high trees at the end there's nothing better than slipping it in (power off).

Ag pilots know nothing of this of course, they think you need oxygen above 50ft AGL
