uuhh,
Ye Old Pilot, not sure how it was in Ye Old Days,
but nowadays, we tend to actually look at the runway before we land.
Therefore NOT landing on top of the aircraft which has yet to commence the roll.
Were we to use your reporting criteria, every landing at a busy major airport would be a potential collision averted, by the amazing fact that the preceding took off!
whatever.
