I think pilots place a little too much emphasis on the grace with which they roll out on to final. The danger in trying to judge the turn perfectly is in overcorrecting in the turn, leading to a stall. Get it roughly right, then stabilise the approach and make small corrections, early, to intercept and maintain the centreline.
