There are several a/c besides the Cirrus "Not Certified for Spins"

Incipient Spin recovery is another matter and must be demonstrated for certification.

The tricky part is that practicing incipient spin recoveries in an a/c not certified for spins courts the possibility that an incipient spin left too long becomes an unrecoverable spin or an opportunity to become instant test pilot

5,000' AGL generally provides a reasonable margin in SE piston a/c -- aka. parachute deployment time.
