Machinbird has just explained it to you.
I have???

If PF had continued lowering the nose through STALL, and kept it there, the a/c would have been lost immediately.
Lyman (Bearfoil), you are lost in space I'm afraid.
Angle of attack needed to be reduced to flyable. It wasn't. There is no stress that would be applied on the aircraft beyond its design intent by lowering the nose to a good 30 degrees nose down or more to restore flyable angle of attack. To do so required running the trim back down. That was not done with either autotrim or manual trim. Once flyable angle of attack was restored, the remaining problem would have been to pull out smoothly before hitting the surface. Then the emergency would have been largely over.
I have noticed a pattern of attention getting behavior on your part. In a forum such as this, it is annoying. There are serious matters to discuss. To have the discussion pulled this way and that by such childlike behavior interferes with proper communication.
If you are having issues with remaining relevant to society, or if you seek the company of other aviators perhaps you should look at other venues.
In the future, please do not attribute thoughts or ideas to me that I have not originated or do not hold. I do not agree with the ideas of your prior post.
