I agree with you and your test pilot pal...much too much emphasis on holding altitude in stall recovery.

push forward and the stall is broken (ok, if you are inverted on purpose maybe not)breaking the stall leaves you with a flying airplane...and then you should make sure you don't hit the ground.

I think this all came about due to the windshear recovery stuff in the sim...two birds with one stone kinda thing...and I think the two are different enough to deserve specific training.
