Can you expand on that a bit, please? I'm not sure I see where you're going
with this.
When the nose is high in the flare, if you have to add power for any reason,
P-factor will tend to add to your problems with a wind from the left and help
you with a wind from the right. In addition, I've always found that slipping
into a wind from the right gives me better visibility in the high-wing aircraft
I've owned.
