@OK 465

Then you mean this only as a transient with the eventual elevator deflection for a sustained full ND SS input at 'slow' speed being the same in both Normal & ALT2(B)?
Yes

SD Flight Control page
Sorry, I don't recognise what you mean by 'SD'

But the FCC's were. I'm still trying to reconcile this with what I've encountered. I'm just not seeing what you're describing.
We may be a bit at cross purposes. I was referring to the aircraft response to actual full ND elevator deflection. Were you perchance referring to full ND SS command? My point was that at low speed you will need a lot more deflection for a given delta gee than you will at high speed.

@HN39
Does negative load factor require negative AoA (zero lift at about -2°)?
Yes - I agree zero lift at about -2 deg.
