Even the intellegency of such a wonderful European creation, sometimes causes questions. My dear B&S. Don't worry to much about it.

However. there is an exception, when in alternate law due to the abnormal attitude laws. In this case there is no reversion to direct law at landing gear extension, as everything is working properly.
Any reference for that?
FCOM 1.27.30 Abnormal attitude laws
Out of memory (so no precise ref.):
In "appropriate" conditions (i.e. high angle of attack, severe loss of energy...) + :
- normal law + autothrust inop
- ...EPR Control Mode Fault (IAE engines)
- One Engine Inoperative with S>0
Basically all conditions in normal law leading to a loss of Aplha Floor function or part of it (thrust part for instance here).
You are still having your AoA protection, meaning you won't exceed alpha max, even with sidestick fully aft.
