That's a GPWS warning - not specific to Airbus. And while - everything else being OK - the PF of a FBW Airbus *can* slam the stick against the back stop with little negative impact, that doesn't mean that they necessarily should.
Advise Airbus they have it wrong with the recommended attitude.
That's not what I'm saying - I agree with Owain Glyndwyr that the recommended pitch of 11 degrees is dependent on other parameters being within a certain range and cannot be taken in isolation. There are far too many other variables involved to draw a conclusion on whether a difference the flare would have made any difference, either positive or negative.
