Even accounting for being trained to disregard an initial stall warning, how on earth can any pilot not automatically ease up on the stick? As I recall that's almost chapter one, page one of Aviation for Dummies. My only explanation would be that the pilot was sacrificing forward velocity whilst climbing because the most efficient climb AOA would be more dangerous due to weather, in the erroneous belief that the aircraft systems would do a better job of minimising forward velocity than a human trying to not quite stall the aircraft.
Also known as the traction control fallacy.
