Impossible?
Deceleration was caused by the pull-up, not the other way around. Of course, anyone is entitled to disagree with my notion that cause precedes effect.
A drastic maneuver would have been to unload to at least 0.5g to reduce the pitch faster, thus conserving more energy and gaining less altitude,
A330 is not tactical fighter, she doesn't fly anything resembling typical F-4 mission profile, there was no need to gain any altitude.
thereby avoiding SW 2 and thus no TOGA with its negative side effect.
What negative side effect of TOGA? Mind you, we are discussing the aeroplane flying at FL350.

Right stick went into nose up position as the stall warning was triggered second time, consequently attitude increased to 17.9° peak -see page 62. Eventually, it did stop the climb in the most disorderly manner.
