Crosswind Certification - How does it affect you?

Quote from para 5
Most operators use crosswind limits that do not exceed the demonstrated crosswinds,
Most of the operators include gusts in their crosswind limits,
All operators adjust the crosswind limits for wet and contaminated runways,
Some of the operators adjust the crosswind limits for visibility,
Most of the operators have reduced crosswind limits for less experienced pilots.
Most operators account for runway width.

And then what about stopping distance? If asymmetric bake is used to aid steering, then this reduces the brake effectiveness for stopping; this might be more noticeable during gusts.
