....and sure , any high G situation requires one to unload to a certain degree, but do any pilots get into an uncommanded high G situation without first recognising its onset ?

Back to my breakfast coffee !
Push to unload, then when somewhere between 0 and 1g, use the ailerons to roll.

It's the sequencing that is structurally critical.
