Tourist I have been in agreement with you all along and changes to flight control laws because of blunders of pilots is like throwing the baby out with bath water.

I am aware that not only Vsw in alternate law but Valpha prot and Valpha Max also are AOA from ADRs averaged and shown as speed. However when in Alt2 when low speed stability is lost as in case of two ADR fail the pitch down will not occur. But when it is available it happens as quoted below from A330 manual. In Alternate law Speed brakes won't retract in A320.
LOW SPEED STABILITY
At low speed, a nose down demand is introduced in reference to IAS, instead of angle of attack, and alternate law changes to direct law
