Gazumped,

It's not that we don't understand you, it's just that we all believe you are completely incorrect.

You do not have to land with less than FFR to break the rules. You can break the rules at any point as long as it is done for a justifiable valid safety reason.

Allowing yourself to land with less than FFR is breaking a rule in itself, which also must be justifiable with a valid safety reason, for example DJ will have to justify conducting a go-around on the first approach knowing that they will infringe on the FFR by doing so. And I'm sure they can justify it. As can the QF crew justify their landing off the first approach.
