I wrote that I only flared slightly, meaning the sink rate usually slowed slightly.
I sure wish I had your knowledge back in the day at short fields like Tegucigalpa, where the touchdown zone ended 750 ft from the threshold or Jackson Hole, or maybe La Guardia during the winter landing a DC10.
Never knew a thing about touchdown zones..... When did that come into play (sarcasm)
