You appear to know something the
professionals don't.
Crosswind Landing Techniques
There are four commonly used crosswind landing techniques (side-slip, crab to touchdown, de-crab in the flare, and a combination of crab and side slip), the technique selected by the pilot can significantly affect the crosswind capability. For instance when using the side-slip (or wing down) technique, the bank angle required to maintain runway alignment increases in proportion to the crosswind component: therefore, in higher crosswinds there is a risk of an engine or wing striking the ground on landing.
