no the message to aviators is that big transport category aircraft are not as strong in some areas as a lightie and shouldn't be flown like a lightie.

they also shouldn't be flown in high speed Vmo descents in bloody turbulence!

you can actually fly these aeroplanes to death (overstress them) as was nearly done in this instance.
