That video is an excellent example to illustrate where a wheel landing would have given better control at touch down.


There are types where the wheeler is the way to go, usually to avoid tail blanking. The DC3 for example.
The DC3 will exhibit tail blanking in a three point landing?

Where did you get that information?
