i'm with the previous posters...HP engine, shouldn't require the "extra" training just to make cirrus some extra $.
per the regs, the TAA "endorsement" is a joke. if you can fly a HP aircraft, your homework is done
What's so bad about the stalls? Neither I, nor any of my students have had a problem with them, in fact I find it to be more docile than a 172.
As for the parachute, from what I've been told it was going to be added anyways so they had it also certified as the Spin recovery rather than spending extra money to do additional spin training.
