Hi Svhar -the warnings are there for the very reason that if they go off, you clearly are a bad pilot who has not been minding the basics. To stall for example you have to ignore 6 separate aural, visual and sensory clues/warnings prior to actual stick shake. So it’s the system saying “ which part of ‘you are stalling and about to die’ , don’t you understand “”
So you are right- they shouldn’t be needed, but they are.
