But stall recovery is not to do with attitude (specifically).

People say "Move the control column (centrally) forward" but how far?

I teach (on basic) "Move the control column (centrally) forward until the stall identification ceases" (this would include, amongst others, stick shaker ceasing to operate).

Perhaps a reminder to flight crew of certain aircraft types that you should allow the stick pusher to do its thing. Perhaps add a reminder of just what the darned thing does. It would not surprise me in the least to see that there would be a percentage of pilots who would react to keep the aircraft stalled not understanding what the stick pusher was doing.
+TSRA, did AF447 and Colgan have a stick pusher?
