I do concur that an axial landing would prevent the continual input of right corrections to keep up with a deck mis-aligned by 10 or so degrees to the way it's moving.
Or indeed the temptation to line up in the STOVL manner only to find yourself well left of centreline with the LSO shouting at you to come right. (Errr...might have done that once or twice!)
I was actually just being flippant about the (small) task the bridge has of aligning boat with wind and the fact that the only time they manage it is when the CO's in the Lynx and the nav track takes you straight onto a rock...or similar!
(I will admit to not being an expert here - I have never flown a Lynx or crashed into a rock.)
