Fly approach at x units at any weight. No tedious calculating of Vapp and is independent of any weight discrepancy.

Flare the a/c to x+y units - again removes any interpretation.

AoA too high? 'Push' the indicator down with the thrust levers.

I don't know why we don't have this on every glass equipped a/c.n
