What went well

Touched down at -200 ft/m — a soft arrival
Threshold crossed at 46 ft and 148 kt — both inside band
Straight touchdown — 5.3 ft off the centreline, no bounce

What held you back

Arrival Landing — Flare profile at 86 %, −0.15 points
Arrival Touchdown — Touchdown VSI was -201 fpm. at 90 %, −0.15 points

Top opportunity

Work on the flare

Arrival Landing

Arrive slow and the sink rate at the threshold is already above schedule, the flare is short because there is no energy to extend it, and the touchdown is hard in a way that feels exactly like a late flare. Diagnosing a slow arrival as a late flare is the catastrophic misread: you respond by flaring earlier, which bleeds more speed, which makes the next one worse. The tiebreaker is threshold speed against VRef, not feel. Never diagnose a flare without it.
