Here is what Airbus SOP says abnormal procedures for Below 1000ft and above DH (for CAT 2 or CAT 3 SINGLE) or above AH (for CAT 3 DUAL)AWO:
At 200ft RA and below Any AUTOLAND warning requires an immediate go-around. If visual references are sufficient and a manual landing is possible, the PF may decide to land manually.
• At flare height
If FLARE does not come up on FMA, a go-around must be performed.
If visual references are sufficient and a manual landing is possible, the PF may
decide to complete the landing.
Thus as shown above the decision to land is an option. It entirely depends on a individual's experience level and actual circumstances.

The AWOPS regulations say Cat 2 and Cat 3 landings MUST be automatic.
Not valid for CAT II. Careful with your statements
