It may be more a question of accuracy than of reliability.
Or is it the angle at which valid CAS is no longer calculated?

Thanks for reminding us about your experiment. I know the original reason given for the AoA vane invalid @ < 60 KT was to prevent spurious SW in the approach and departure regimes, but it has now been demonstrated to be confusing when the envelope gets "extended".
