Obviously you don't latch it on and forget it.
If all the vanes are flopping around in the breeze regardless of the speed, for goodness sake the aircraft must be in a non-flying ie stalled condition. Make the stall warning sound until it is flying again, not switch off below 60KIAS because some boffin thinks "that can't happen". This is not a hard concept to grasp.
