My understanding is that there were major concerns about the possibility of it. Which to me is the point of an integration testing program you test for the worst case envisaged to see what mitigations you may or may not need.

It appears that the more histronic fears are just that and they have already done the testing and have generated some required alterations but not at the level of the worst case scenario. All that said I had thought on land the standard operating procedure would be a conventional landing or some variant of a rolling vertical landing anyway.
