I think I was including "landing" in the relevant part of "pinpoint landing," not just the pinpoint element, which was what made it amusing. It did (apparently) "land" and not "crash" (or at least that's what I'm assuming from the fact that it isn't crushed/doesn't look like it made primary impact on some part that was not intended for impact), but "landing and falling over" doesn't normally earns a perfect score in any other common context.
- johnwalkr 3y agoI work in the industry and "pinpoint landing" refers to the accuracy part. If he was talking about landing in general, the sentence would be something like "the landing didn't go as expected, but we achieved a pinpoint landing".
