John,
this is the value of the trim handle. By resetting it, if you become
momentarily distracted, you are less likely to let the nose float up.
I had an interesting trim quandry a few days ago. Should one
trim the AC-4c retract nose down or nose up for landing?
If nose down, then the pilot is less likely to accidentally stall
on landing. But as the two pilots before me put it on the
nose, perhaps there is a downside.
I suggest more likely reasons are a forward CG, braking too hard, and
not doing a "fully held off" landing, which ends up with the stick in
your lap.
