FFF: I agree with much of what you've written but it's incorrect to talk about the nose being high; the aircraft can stall in any attitude and the nose may or may not be high. For erect stalls "stick sufficiently far forward to unstall the wing" is more appropriate than "lower the nose".

Also, waiting for Vy before pitching-up is unnecessary and leads to excessive height loss.
