This is true, but in the end the reduction in AOA is accomplished by the stick being pushed forward, as it always is; and this must not be forgotten. (Especially in planes with underwing engines and a nose-up thrust couple.) The phrase "powering out of the stall" needs to die in a fire, starting yesterday, because people are always going to misinterpret it in the most simplistic way possible. Say "only reduce the AOA a little bit" instead.
