However I distinctly recall one instructor told me to use rudder in those last few seconds before touchdown to get the a/c pointing in the right direction, assuming I was already tracking down the extended centre line of the runway and wings are level.
That interpretation is credible, yes.

Today however I landed on one wheel [the correct one, deliberately] ... try doing that using only the rudder!
