Couple few things.

Yeah, I know about that other pedal thing (good job with the list, so much more dramatic). Airbus wants you to use it in certain scenarios, like when you are about to hit the ground. It's possible there are so few VRS accidents because most of us have been trained in avoidance, recognition and recovery. Don't hold your breath waiting for any "scientific papers" be written on this because it's not going to happen. I already said Airbus don't want you to practice VRS in flight. If you are in full on VRS (depending on your altitude), neither one is probably going to save you. If you go forward because you have an external load and crash, you still did the wrong thing. The quickest way out it is the Vuichard. If you can't figure out what's going on when you raise the collective and the opposite of what you expect to happen, happens, and you don't know how to react, find another line of work.
