How bad was this landing?

Explain rather than just making statements why the landing part should be out of trim ? How much back pressure do you want ? Is this not part of the reason that some land flat ?

I taught a Seneca pilot to premeditate the trim changes from approach trim and to taking a bit more nose up trim in the transition phase and it sorted his heavy control problems. Obviously the Seneca has a stabilator rather than an elevator.

Why? For what logical reason do you promote landing with an out of trim aircraft ? I can understand from a instructors viewpoint with low time students you need the student to be on a stable approach with as little to do especially in the last phase of the flight where there is room for error but I don't understand later on why you should want an out of trim aircraft when there is no need ?
