Isn't any problem? I doubt any fully-stalled aeroplane at slow speed and 40° AOA could be recovered using only full forward stick with a full back-trimmed stab
40° AOA is quite extreme and not sustainable, but with THS at 25°-30° AOA, reduced thrust, the elevator at max ND would give a ND momentum

in the heat of the moment, when you never use the trim normally, I doubt very much whether you're going to remember to do it.
That's true for Perpignam, but in 4.5 minutes...
