LTE and Vortex Ring are not well understood, primarily as they are badly taught.
Where you see an aircraft losing the battle with gravity or the tail overtaking the pilot it is immediately blamed on Vortex or LTE, as if the poor person up front was a passenger to the events, when it is in most cases the aircraft being taken beyond it's limits through flawed technique.
