I guess you're right. But I always thought aviation safety was way overstated. Don't you think it's better to have a landing that looks good than totally safe and according to some random company rules? Especially true for airlines where it must be important to impress the passengers so that they want to fly with you again.
Turning off early also helps, I find.
