Default Phrase "landing runway" vs. "cleared to land"

You are correct that as a Part 91 flight you can begin the approach even if
it is reported Zero-Zero, and you are allowed to land if you have the runway
environment in site when you reach the decision point on the approach. You
are not allowed to break something in the process. If the controller cleared
you to land wouldn't he or she possibly share some culpability?


Because other planes were landing. I've never see a situation in which
a tower controller could deny landing clearance because he thought the
wx was too low.
