Ah! I see, I think depressurization is unlikely, but I see your theory. I think we are both on the same page with respect to engine out. It should have been indicating about 160 kts, altitude locked should take about one minute to come back to 100 kts and stall. That's why I went straight to a training exercise gone wrong, thrust reduction but a very generous zero thrust to take 2 mins.
