Clandestino,
This succinct rephrasing of the sentence I asked about reads and means different, as you are well aware.
In the rephrasing, your wording "overpowering" is an element that is at the core of the reasoning behind why to have, or not to have an automatic move NU of the THS during Stall, when Elevator action need be immediately fully efficient.
I should clarify that I was looking for your own words, and your own supporting explanation, as short statements alone are often too brief to be a platform for a discussion, and so can be a book reference.
This last book reference is illustrative - you may find an appropriate appreciation. Unfortunately, I don't have the technical means to share the collection of excellent documentation on theoretical and practical aspects of the workings of the THS and Elevators which I have, for being able to reciprocate.
