"Now that certainly matches the UAS criteria, but whether that should have been displayed or annunciated is debatable. The PNF announced, "We've lost the speeds", but then failed to check the QRH for guidance and the game was lost before reaching first base."......from mm43, above.

How is it debatable? Are you comfortable hand flying without speeds in these conditions? For thirteen seconds, now the ship is climbing? Now you will wait for UAS determination causing serious control changes in mode until 2:10:22?

What am I missing here?

The game was lost before crew had a chance to troubleshoot.
