Ignore the FD"
Easier said than done sometimes.
Sure! But isn't this a simulator exercise? We practice in simulator many things that are not that easy to acquire competance to do them in real life when the need arises. In Airbus if stall happens when the bird is on hitting TOGA will bring FDs back. So good practice to fly ignoring FD. I think the important thing is to be able to apply immediate recovery actions with or without FD.
