I don't see how it's
possible to fly final with power on a trajectory that puts you on the
numbers and still be able to make the runway if you lose power.

That's why some of us fly power-off approaches. If your airport is
friendly to that technique, why not use it?

If you need a power-on approach to blend with other traffic or keep
the controller sane, then do that. After all, it's very unlikely that
your engine will quit--probably less likely than someone will bump
into you in the pattern.
