At the assumed high (over)speed one would expect that the slightest pull force on the stick would have converted the flight path upwards.

It appears though, that for some reason there had not been a (sufficient) resultant pull force to create that sustained upward path initially.

I would not be surprised if we learn that counteracting stick inputs, with subsequent (multiple) alternating priority(ies) during the part, just prior and over the runway, may be presented on the FDR and the CVR…

(Just to keep the possibility open that the gear had been down already before touch down, these priority changes of controls could of course also have happened during circumstances where a possible unconscious ’trigger’ or ’reflex’ of either pilot occurred, resulting in inadvertently raising the gear prematurely…)

Remains another question: At what point was the autopilot kicked off?
