"Out of the Envelope -- You're Dead" as a Certification Standard

That is a possible surmise from BEA's report and webcast.

But do we really expect a crew that ends up in a developed stall and later realises the situation to simply accept their fate in an intact airframe at better than FL300? Is that acceptable to the SLF population?

Stick pushers were once required in transport a/c that could not recover from a stall -- why has that requirement apparently been dropped?
