How about option #4:

- disconnect the automatics
- place one hand on the stick/controller/yoke
- place the other hand on the throttles
- visually look out the front windscreen
- cross-check your indicated air speed to maintain VRef
- land the airplane like the wings on your chest say you are capable of
Sorry. Too difficult. Look at the caloric cost: all those hand and eye movements, not to mention rudder inputs, PLUS the judgement required.
