A380? 13 degrees Crab at touchdown OK ??

Question above:
"... KAL's training policy that in crosswind landings, it is imperative that pilots decrab simultaneously during the flare[?] ..."

Looking at the videos of the A380 flight tests, of their crosswind demonstration-landings, it seems as if each landing touchdown is done WINGS LEVEL, with no last-second yawing motion.
