I think that the passengers and crew were very lucky that the use of incorrect procedures didn't make the situation any worse than it became.
I am glad that the copilot knew how to deal with a stall, but sad that neither he nor his captain didn't recognise that this wasn't a stall.
Whilst reference is made in the report to Window of Circadian Low, and dismissed as not being a factor, no reference is made to duty hours, nor commuting, nor cumulative fatigue, apart from a statement from the Operator that the crew were fully rested. They would say that wouldn't they.
