Well my reading of it would be an implied over-reaction by the crew. I don't think the Makila 2A1 is particularly prone to compressor stall, less so than for example the 1A2, and unlike certain far-west engine manufacturers, Makila don't consider it to be a catastrophe if it does happen. So maybe (speculation) it is just about crew awareness of the nature of the beast they are flying.
