AFAIU the reason for using less flaps in a crosswind is that it allows you to land at a higher speed, giving better rudder efficiency and smaller drift- and bank angle. Whereas one reason for using less flaps in high or gusty winds is that it makes it easier to keep the nose wheel from touching down first. Right?
I don't do it that way, since I think there are other and stronger reasons why using more flaps is a better idea, but I can at least see the point...
But there is no way I would do a no flap landing in a PA28 unless there was a lot of extra runway available... Less problem in a C172, where the POH contains the needed data (35% longer landing distance with flaps up).
