Note that jets landing on an aircraft carrier do not flare.

Jets do not land on carriers. They make controlled crashes.

I've heard it said that Navy pilots basically fly the airplane into
the carrier.

If the aircraft is reusable, it is a great landing; if the pilot walks
away, it is a good landing; if the pilot merely survives, it is an OK
landing. ;)

Navy pilots say flaring to land is like squatting to pee. Real men don't do
it!
