May I humbly suggest that if one flies one dot above the glide and the other one with unreasonable excess speed all the way to touch down, the two combined could lead to disaster or not far from it.
Slippery aircrafts such as modern commercial jets, are not often of the forgiving type.
I do not have BelArgUSA's experience (and he didn't imply he was doing both either) so in my limited view, I can say that whether I flew the 75/76/73 or the smaller Citations, Vref+5 at the threshold (Corrected with half the wind + full gust to a max of 20kts), on the glide has always worked well enough.

But I do take note of other's ways to operate...
