I beg to differ with your comment about handling in ALT2 being little different. Have you experienced this in flight rather than in the sim? I have flown an A330 in ALT2 due to a twin ADR disagree situation (one blocked pitot + a different failed ADR) and I was quite surprised at how rapidly the aircraft banked versus the normal roll rate. It also exibited a strong natural tendency to return to wings level with the stick neutral. It is very easy to overbank in ALT2 law.
