Just wondering...

One thing comes to my mind after seeing the NASA video about tailplane icing and reading the posts about the low speed hypotesis.

Could that be a trick for the crew that what the plane does to alert pilots about imminent stall ( shaking the stick, then pushing it forward ) is very similar to the symptoms of tailplane icing ( vibrations in the commands and not in the airframe AND strong nose down force on the stick ) ?
