you have to also use common sense, a thing that seems to be lost in Aviation nowadays.
Nothing to do with being stable.
Hmmm, you can be stable without having done the landing checklist, but a big part of the cx is that the aircraft is in its landing config with everything set up for landing or go around.
If everything is done, then thats all good. But if it isn't, it doesn't leave you long to do it, and that means PM not monitoring whilst doing necessary actions.
Even just completing the checklist requires PM to not be concentrating solely on monitoring, and PF not 100% focused on flying.
Not saying that just because your company allows it people leave the checklist so late, I'm sure most if not all would get it complete much sooner, but I know certainly I wouldn't like to be focused on doing something else other than flying or monitoring between 500ft and minimums
