Okay, then I say we are in “violent” agreement.

Land a good margin, as you say, with jet engines on board.

Land much closer to stall, perhaps a few knots over, for piston.

A piston you can recover a porpoising landing.

A jet you should do a bounce-n-go, and try again from scratch, due to spool-up latency.

Agreeed. The only time an aviator should point his nose at the deck is in a bombing run or catching the 3rd wire.
