gums, don't you think the only reason an airbus pilot would pull the side stick all the way back at FL350 is because airbus said it couldn't stall?

No Boeing pilot would do that. They would hold the appropriate attitude and power for their altitude and weight. No one would pull back as they did.

Boeing guys are a very special breed of course. But what about, say, Dash 8 pilots? They would never pull up in a stall and in any case there's still the stickpusher, right?

People doing the wrong thing because instinct overrules knowledge wasn't invented with FBW controls:
