It is a matter of picking the VREF for the landing flap you have! i know that re currents I have flown in the past, my examiner would like full flap flaps approach and flaps land.

Obviously clean you will land flatter and faster and single engine for real you would take landing flap when landing is assured bar an act of God!
But for training purposes all configurations work.

I must say i am talking about the 500/550/560 but would not expect the CJ to be miles apart.
No landing is ever assured.
I think landing (IE coming back to earth) is assured albeit not in the way you are suggesting You cannot stay up there forever but yes take your point as no one knows that a startled Deer will not run across the runway as you are flaring

it is surprising how many Deer collisions there are see the sad remains of a Citation deer collision below
