I'm looking at aim point and clearing final for that Cessna on a straight-in
who didn't use his radio... No need to look at the ground - I know it's
still there.

Who looks down the wing at the ground when they turn? In pattern turns I'm
looking straight over the glare shield, focused on airspeed (pitch), yaw
string, and bank angle.

The argument which says one should avoid low turns ignores the fact that
every glider flight ends with at least one turn at or below 300' AGL.
Unless a pilot is well trained for low turns this is a recipe for a
stall/spin accident. I respectively suggest a better alternative is to
find a CFI willing to provide GRM training in a touring motorglider or
slow LSA and get really good at it.
