I would disagree on training that. The most likely cause would be a long landing, but that would be the first mistake then. Landing long and THEN deciding to GA would be two mistakes in a row.
It gets into the field of aborting after V1, even on a long RWY.
"Landing long and THEN deciding NOT to GA would be two mistakes in a row."

There, fixed that for you.

I hated the technique I observed by many F/O's, especially on shorter runways with auto brakes set, where they would remove their hands from the correct position on the Thrust Levers to holding the REV T/L's during the flare with the a/c still in the air; waiting to snap them open ASAP. IMHO this is conditioning the mind that you WILL land. Their brain is in land mode and their hands are NOT is G/A mode. There is no rush. I preferred the philosophy of - land, speed brakes up, a/c brakes working, steer, "I want to stay on the ground", select Rev Thrust.
^^^ This.
