So vilas, where does it say "Do not apply full back stick" ... ?
Make your own procedures as you like, but they're not from Airbus.

Not too sure why vilas choose to post a paper old of 20 years, but just opening the actual FCOM in the emergency procedures and GPWS ALERTS will put things straight :
"PULL UP"
Pull to full backstick and maintain in that position

No choice really - Maintain if you're fully protected in Normal law, but don't if you're only partially protected to respect the stall warning.
Alternate law in pitch is still a load factor demand with maneuver protection included, why wouldn't you take advantage of it if it can save you from hitting the ground ?

Vilas makes rules that are not in the books.
