In fairness, in order to believe that one must believe that he never read his FCOM - which explicitly states that the A330 can be stalled outside of Normal Law.
But I think that misses the bigger point that other pilots have done much the same thing - holding an airplane in a stall while dropping thousands of feet until impact - on non-FBW aircraft with cross linked controls. Some were highly experienced senior pilots that certainly should have known better, and should have been under no illusion regarding their ability to stall the aircraft (Bergenair comes to mind).
Thank you - I've been banging on about that one for years.
