All other things being equal, and ILS is safer than an NPA, and so a bias towards the ILS is to some extent natural. But when the other variables are added, that may no longer be the case, and it is the crew's responsibility to weigh all the information and do what is appropriate. I this case, the safety of the ILS was outweighed by the winds in conjunction with wet conditions. This is usually a grey area, though in this instance, if the crew were given the correct winds, there seems to be less leeway. What is still indefensible is to press-on when there is such a massive energy excess over the runway - that only ever ends up one way, and yet pilots still do it several times a year. Serious efforts need to be made into getting pilots to be less committed to landing off an approach where they are visual.
