in the case of the windshear and depending on circumstances it can be better to be at the verge of stall than to pitch down. A quasistalled airplane goes down, but a quasistalled airplane pitching down goes down faster, and you need height to recover the speed you need to make a pull out. You might get in a secondary stall or simply crash before you have enough energy. In these cases, it can be better not to sell any potential energy and hope that the windshear will end soon.
Windshear is a problem of time, after all.

As far as I know, Airbus drivers do not practice stalls in the sim.
Because airbus FBWs are supposed not to stall.
but they do
Until one year or so, stall recovery technique was only included deep in some FCOM (you never know which one, exactly). They decided to include it in the QRH as a proper procedure and now we have one more memory procedure... (20 years late!).
Before coming to the airbus, I saw too many FIs giving too much importance to the height loss during a stall recovery. I always thought that the wings are what matters, and the sooner you unstall them, the better, because the less energy will be lost.
