There is not a single reason to NOT come in fairly high, cut power as soon as certainly within gliding distance from the threshold, and sideslip off the excess altitude so as to touch down on the numbers. Crosswind or no - only, if there IS a crosswind, make sure your sideslip is on the right side.
My philosophy entirely. No doubt it's wrong though.
