I would agree with your technique on very short runways! Coming in low with lots of power (As long as your not taking everything out below you Works well in making sure you touch down on the button
But you will have every alarm going off so switch them off
I always used that technique onto v short runways in piston twins! That had extra benefits too from the props in increased airflow over the wings elevators and rudder. You knew your engines were working and chopping power was an instant flatter approach touchdown.
