as it developed the roughly "homogeneous" attitude at impact,
Bear,
Homogenous?
Don't you wish to imply a stable attitude?

I agree, very likely relatively stable at the end, but still somewhat dependent on actions of the crew who must have been desperate.
The way to life was not to bring the nose up however, but instead down. If they recognized a stall and had any experience with the subject, they should have instinctively known that.
The final impact bears too many similarities to D.P. Davies discussion about "Superstalls" to be anything different. I hope Friday we will know for sure.

BEA should be able to then tell us the general context of what the aircraft was doing on its way down although not the actual reasons in the final required detail.
