Any aircraft will STALL. A control Law is method. The definition of STALL is loss of control, so what you are saying is this aircraft will not STALL because we define it so.

Of course it will STALL in NORMAL LAW. Some will say NO, but there isn't time to change the "Rules", or the "definition of the method" in sufficient time to prevent STALL in any of a number of circumstances. Turbulence, for one. WIND SHEAR for another.

It is no more than saying, "if flown correctly" an airplane will not STALL.

Or, "I'm wearing red, so I am safe."

It is a fool's advertising Pitch, and they are just as dead.

It is pretending one has something when one doesn't that traps people into problems.
