Atlas IS nose-heavy, compared to our old Warrior. No different than
comparing a 172 and a 182, really...and the performance difference is about
the same, too. It's just got that wing thingy on the proper side of the
fuselage!
I sure wouldn't dream of coming in behind the power curve, hitting an
unpaved strip and locking up the brakes, though. I've just got too much
money tied up in our plane to treat it like that...


You are missing his point. At 55 kts

Kts? Kts is for airline pilots. That's 55 mph IAS.


he is still at minimum 10 kts above

Stall is around mid 40's mph.


aft cg gross weight stall.

It's a 182, we're nowhere near aft cg.


A
high sink rate with your Piper may punch the main gear up through the
top of the wing. On the Cessna it will splay outward and propel the
aircraft back into the air.

If you do it right it doesn't bounce at all. If you bounce you're
airspeed was too high. The lower you're airspeed the higher the sink
rate can be.
