True Ghengis, but the arrival of the Ferranti FIN 1064 was a great improvement.
Of interest, I brought them home serviceable on far more occasions than u/s.
You are right about the low incidence limit. The problem was that it started to run out of directional stability at high incidence - basically the fin was not large enough. You had to be careful with heavy centreline stores on board. The vertical movement of the roll centre was quite noticeable.
Flown sensibly within the limits it was an enjoyable piece of kit to fly, and a very accurate and capable weapons platform. The 3-axis autostabilisation system contributed greatly to this.
Long-legged little beast as well.
