Ah, but that is why you do have inertia belts.
A simple practice is to taxi along the taxiway or runway at gradually increasing speeds in a crosswind if possible and get used to dropping the flap lever and raising it without changing the aileron/yoke position you have selected for the crosswind. You will find it is very easy and it will prepare you for the day when you have large tyres and cannot see the ground directly in front anyway.
You can hook your three fingers under the lever to hold it and hook your index finger over the top of the button for perfect control.
The point of the landing box for the left wheel is to get used to picking a target spot and adhering to it.
It is very difficult to hit anything with a rifle unless you have defined the target first, then aligned your eye, backsight, front sight and defined precise target.
Not the whole round target, but the bullseye.
Not the airstrip, but the specific spot.
Only this way can you hit it with precision.
