to avoid landing overweight when the fuel consumption it's completely messed up. I've saw that someone does that .

the way I see is, when fuel planning has been made properly, there should not be a discussion of overweight landing, even that is the case, we are not here to judge and pick out someone else's mistake or mishaps. This is a game that we enjoy. I am sure SS will chime in as well
