stall warning

Why would the stall warning be programmed to stop if the AOA indication is deemed unreliable below 60kts? Doesn't it seem intuitive that if a 200t jet transport has an IAS of < 60kts (and WOW says the plane is in the air), then it MUST be stalled, regardless of the AOA reading?

Then again, we have our iced pitot scenario, with IAS of less than 60kts.
