'too bad SW doesn't feel the need for auto-braking, they remove that piece of safety equipment from all planes."
Where did you get that information? It seems strange.
They don't engage autobraking, and I know that they removed it from some planes. SW strips lots of things from the cockpit. They do, however have a great HUD system that allows them to land in conditions that many other airlines can't.
As for the autobrake, I think the pilot landed too long, with a tailwind that was too high and nothing was going to stop that plane in those conditions. Not sure who was doing the landing on that flight, but it speaks a bit to the SW culture of getting the planes in fast, taxiing fast and getting out fast.
As for the info, lots of airline employee boards where they are discussing it tech wise.
Real good thread here:

Its no secret that Southwest strips the cockpits to save dough, they meet the minimum requirements but don't much go over them.
