I think nobody will disagree that the deactivating stall warning is not a bright idea. It should be noted though that it took a lot of effort to get the a/c that far over the edge.
QRH 2.15 recommends 5 degs pitch with Climb Power. Since Alpha was > 45degs - that wouldn't have worked either.
5 deg /CLB is a worst case interpretation (I'm sure most are aware of this Flight Safety Article? Aviation Troubleshooting: AF447 - Unreliable Speed - by Joelle Barthe, Airbus Engineer ) of the UAS procedure. Had it been applied we wouldn't be having this discussion.
