This technique is only for those that do not want to take the risk that if they are unable to take the aircraft out of the crab in a coordinated form, they might touch too hard, or even cause too much stress to the landing gear.
Exactly. Quite the opposite.
Especially during a crosswind landing you want wheel spin up and hence ground spoilers NOW!
In “Rod Machado Ground School” shipped with FS2000, he say new pilots can use side-slip for approach cause it’s easier to align with runway center line, and switch to crab attitude just before touch down.
It’s been years and I am not sure if I get it right. 
Show me… Seeing is believing… Only after you experience the challenge you will understand what is the more serious problem.
That’s plain and simple 100% wrong.

This is complete, complete nonsense. Side-slipping / wing low is actually uncoordinated flight.
I’m off block in 30 min anyway, have a nice one

Why take out the crab at all?
All the best and have fun in the sparsely populated skies 
Almost envious!
You see, when it comes to performing real live performance, you are just stuck on words… If you are scared to fail, or not succeed in doing it right, you will find it amusing how challenging it is… A dare your Pilots knowledge and admire your fear, Learn to teach others, that you may have reached a limit and gone beyond.
Luckely no crosswind today 
Once MSFS gets a replay function I might show you the basics and various techniques of landing an aircraft in a crosswind.
This technique is unprofessional. In addition, if you look at it from the engineering point of view, those pilots that use this technique seem to not understand that too many times touchdown in this form causes too much stress to the landing gear and airframe, the wear, and tear of the structure, which causes higher maintenance requirements and causes also the lack of responsibility.
While professional landings, cause smooth touchdowns, light forces on the gear, and even more coordination and high levels of performance… If you ask me, but if you think I am wrong, then I guess if you start paying for the maintenance, you would understand the problem better.
Done in the right way, like in the video will prove mathematically that it requires a higher level of awareness, and faster reaction moves, in addition to nailing it to the center line right at the moment. Look at the video and inspire yourself, if you care to improve yourself on FS2020.
I thought the wing low method is only for Dummies?
You don’t need replay function, you can record your live performance, which requires even more focus.

I didn’t say it is for dummies, but crabbing is much more complex. and harder to perform.
I have never underestimated anything that I have never experienced.
By the way, If you even try it on FS2020, I am sorry to tell you that you will not succeed.
And I hope you understand why…
Dear PZL, You are unprofessional by using the word “wrong again” and not even learning to perform, that is only proving that you know you are not capable in showing your seriousness in aviation or for that matter FS2020.
And again you are completely wrong. 
Have a nice day

Using the same word, with no proof, is plain and simple very childish, not being mature about what is possible and what is not.
Another reason, you might not be aware of, is to take your understanding of aviation and put it into practice, instead of using the same words, that is not scientific, just to show that you are not discussing here your knowledge but are amusing yourself, by not improving… It’s may be because you don’t believe that you can improve.
