Given that the crew on the Airblue A321 didn't respond to more than 20 terrain warnings, most of which were "pull up", and the crew of AF447 didn't respond to a similar alarm shouting "stall" at the top of its electronic lungs, it seems ridiculous to labour the point on sidestick feedback.

Time and time again the issue of pilots ignoring, or failing to respond to, alarms is a factor in avoidable accidents. Never mind the sidestick. Ask yourselves what part of "stall" or what part of "pull up" they don't understand.
