JD-EE:
You're not taking the training around loss of air data into account. One of the things quickly learned from the pitot/static failure accidents in the 1990s was that aural warnings generated were confusing, thus the correct thing to do is to disregard them and fly pitch-and-power until the speed readings become valid again. This is not something peculiar to the A330, it is common to all advanced jetliners.
If the pilot were simply reacting to those warnings, when he had visual cues in the form of the ADI in front of him and the power settings - neither of which requires air data to function, and are therefore likely to be correct - telling him that he was too nose-high for the power he had selected at that altitude, then he was either not adequately trained for this scenario, or so thrown by the sudden onset of the situation that the training went out the window.
