They unflex because the load is removed.

Isn't it also true that lift will be reduced if a highly flexed wing
increases its angle attack beyond the critical angle of attack. If
the wing is producing less lift it cannot maintain the flex that
existed before the critical angle of attack was exceeded. As the wing
unflexes the tip angle of attack increases.

I see nothing in your comments which is invalid. If the wing unflexes
due to stall and resultant loss of lift, the further increase in the
angle of attack during the unflex may be of little consequence.
