the only reasons that i can think of for having such an overwhelming urge to be on the ground are fire and fuel.

there was no fire, so.....
Unless the fuel problem developed very late in the descent, a crew with possible fuel problems would have made certain that their approach was stable enough to minimise the chance of a go around being required.
