You're biased too, writing off every other pilot input on this accident. They messed up bad. They correctly identified the problem "we have bad speed indications" and then didn't follow procedure for it. After yanking back and stalling, all the FO in the right seat did was pitch for the Flight Director bars. That's fact, and shown in the accident animation created by the investigators. You seem to ignore all that, and make some argument for how the Gs and buffer they felt apparently threw them off too much to know they were stalled.
