Why did you choose the longer rwy when the wind favored the shorter one?

Liked the color . Sorry to be sarcastic, but my question
had to do with how other pilots regard the use of 2 runways
at once, and I sense a theme here of wanting to microanalyze
my decision making process and the specific situation, which
isn't my personal interest.

Unless you are doing xwind practice

Good "unless"

I think using the wind as a precedent is most prudent.

See other posts giving reasons why other runways might be
more prudent (besides xwind landing practice).

You mention in another post about 10kts airspeed difference. What is the
reason for that and what plane is that?

Higher stall speed, dramatically higher sink rate approaching stall,
Grumman. It's SOP taught in the type-club pilot fam course. Cruise
speed is also 10-20 kts faster.

What were the winds and what were the rwy headings and lengths?

I have no idea -- nothing too kicky, 10-12 kts? They were fairly
variable. 36, ~3500 27, 2000. I can land on the 2000 ft runway
and make the half-way turnoff without touching the brakes.
