ahramin, slam click, the point in #6 is that an individual’s ability to make sense – of being aware, is more than likely to be degraded in a warning situation; stress / surprise severely reduces mental resources.
In addition, it could have been a poor sense / awareness which resulted in the warning. Thus why consider another an action subject to misjudgement, based on what could already be a misjudged sense of awareness, etc.
An EGPWS pull-up warning is one of a few situations in aviation where action should be taken without further thought or analysis after the recognition of the warning (others might be windshear or TCAS).
