you are more likely to hit the nosewheel first
Why?
you might use more runway than you have available
Don't you check your landing performance?

learn how to use assymetric thrust a bit on multi's
Talk about something not routine!!

but every landing you ever did with full flaps is that much more experience when you really need it...otherwise you might as well do partial flap landings all the time (you'll be sorry)
I do, except where performance dictates otherwise
