The point is that it appears that you're arguing that the autoflight should be considered in part responsible for the zoom climb initiated by the PF (as I read it), which doesn't look to be the case. You're also arguing overspeed protection coming into play, despite the fact that even CONF iture himself has said that in Normal Law, the Overspeed warning will sound before any protections kick in. There were no occurrences of overspeed warning on either the ACARS or the CVR, based on the material released so far. You've been continually trying to argue that the aircraft was responsible for the loss of control and you say you're doing this to "defend" the pilots. Defend them from what?

In the legal sense, it's always going to be a case of split responsibility between Airbus and the airline because of the known pitot tube issues and the subsequent mishandling of the aircraft.
