I'm sorry, but that is ridiculous. There is no way that this task should in any way negate the automatic response to an imminent stall. Pushing is in our nature.

We are so ingrained to push that many in my class, including myself, found it very difficult to hold the aircraft in the shaker and let the engines take care of the airspeed during a stall recovery in the ERJ.

Stall recovery is one of the most automatic procedures in all of flying.
