Unfortunately you're missing my point.
AirNZ lost an aircraft over the last few years when the FACs slipped offline. Yes they fell into direct law so technically they didn't stall in "Normal Law", but it is quite capable of stalling if you push the envelope while within Normal Law so as always, one needs to respect the limitations of Le Bus.
There is no difference stalling from a high AoA maneuver in normal law and subsequently falling into direct law at the stall; to falling into a stall while in direct law.
You were in normal law, then a split second later you are stalled, whether you transition into direct law is irrelevant in my eyes as the end result is the same, a clean pair of undies followed by tea and biscuits, then subsequent pineapple surgery.
