Interesting......... Personally I think we should always demonstrate a full stall recovery. Even though our syllabus only requires us to demonstrate a recovery at the first sign, my instructors have allowed me to practice the maneuver (both in the 120 and the CR2/7/9's).
I hope that more airlines adopt a full stall recovery as a train to proficiency maneuver; after all, stalling a C172 is entirely different than stalling an RJ, Boeing or Airbus.
