I could buy the "ground reference " explanation if we were stalling close to the ground, but if course we don't do that and at 3,000 ft the visual clues from the ground are negligible.
I can see that stalling into wind might keep you from being blown away from the airfield, but this is a bit thin and I don't see why you would mention that on a pre-flight brief.
Surely "wantobe" is a troll.
