What kind of nonsensible contribution do you find in my statements?
It is a matter of simple engineering fact that aircraft are not designed - and not REQUIRED to be designed - to be immune to the consequences of any conceivable pilot input. I'll add to the last post by clandestino that every single one of our types has a similarly worded AFM/FCOM warning about the consequences of excessive control use.

You appear to be expecting 100% guarantees in your aircraft design; it doesn't exist in either structures or systems, and isn't required.
