In 2006 or 2008 Airbus considered connected side sticks and didn't find it particularly useful and rejected it. In 2014 about the SFO crash NTSB asked Boeing to have look at their throttle hold function Boeing will keep looking but not going to do anything about it. High level handling is not possible because the planet is RVSM.
What is possible is to explain the pilot the normal attitudes at higher levels and tell him that at those levels in alternate law pulling on the stick without looking at PFD can be fatal. It is possible to teach him stall recovery as is being done. Tell pilots that even on autothrottle you cannot fly an approach without monitoring your speed. When automation reaches those perfect levels nobody will higher someone to sit in the cockpit. Already technology is moving towards that. It's matter of which is easier to eliminate, the human error or the human himself?
Already Airbus and Boeing have created a speed without anemometric input. Airbus calls it digital speed, Boeing calls it synthetic speed? That can be used in 447 situation. A350 has auto TCAS, auto EMER descent. It's not Airbus or Boeing it's the march of technology.
