I've never disputed that, nor have I disputed that somatogravic illusions can occur. What I'm arguing is that the combinations of pitch attitude and longitudinal accelerations that occur in maneuvers at more or less constant total energy (or at quasi-constant rate-of-change of total energy) - e.g. the swing analogy - do not result in somatogravic illusions.
