It's very old ground now, but to re-introduce the counterpoint, there is no evidence whatsoever that interconnected CCs are more likely to aid stall recovery and independent SSs.
Interconnected CCs provide a first hand information to all crew members on the flight deck that Independent SSs just unfortunately suppress.
