Nitpicker,
Nothing new here. Airbus AND Boeing worked together and came up with a new "Stall recovery" checklist that placed emphasis on lowering the nose to reduce the AOA BEFORE adding thrust.
Agreed in terms of generic advice, but now there is a specific procedure for stall reovery where previously the non-normal maneuvre was for approach to stall which is a controlled flight condition and it specified adding thrust first. In the old QRH there was actually a line of text which stated that if a stall recovery was required, then the first action is to apply and maintain nose down elevator and was mashed up with the nose low recovery procedure and stangely divorced from the nose high one.

The amendment is overdue, when I realised one day that I had confused the approach to stall procedre for stall recovery I wondered why there was no specific procedure.
