With 4000 hours on the CRJ, I’ve had it several times. Both LOC and GS. I’ve seen the airplane abruptly pitch 10° nose down to catch a false glideslope. I’ve seen it track the localizer inbound when I was still 4 miles away from the localizer course many times.
Just because it hasn’t happened to you doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened.
