If anything, the slight nose-down pitch attitude should make it easier
to see the runway, compared to having to search for it over the nose
in level flight after a dive-and-drive.
A factor I didn't see mentioned:
A coupled autopilot can fly a WAAS approach. It cannot do dive and drive.
A coupled approach does let you keep your eyes outside, especially during
the transition phase, but how many are equipped with AP's that can do
coupled approaches?
Remember: CONTEXT.
Most of the ones with WAAS boxes I would guess.
