Problem there is that for things like an aerodynamic configuration problem, depending on the airframe, there may well be no 'feel' to recognize. An aircraft which only has artificial stall warning, say, will give you no warning that you're approaching stall in the 'wrong' config. Though I'll confess you may notice something like the pitch attitude being 'wrong'.
