Bounced landings. Should you go around or re-land straight ahead?

I did find for a low hour student that landing with a slight tailwind was conducive to bouncy landings.
Also I never understood why so many instructors insist you fly those things at 70kts to an inch of the landing surface. I discovered through experimenting on my own that initiating a slow constant rate flare from nice and high meant I get to wash off all that speed and land on the fatter oleos rather smoothly and easily.
