Nonetheless, it's what I would use as primary, if I only had that and the
whiskey compass.

Yup. The crucial point is that the inclinometer tells you about slipping or
skidding. So if it's centered, then the TC indeed tells you whether you're
banked or level.

Just two weeks ago I had the wonderful experience of a real live vacuum
failure in the middle of clouds over a 200' ceiling. TC with
inclinometer to keep the wings level and GPS for navigation got me
safely down with help from ATC. I'd check the whiskey compass about once
a minute to make sure nothing was lying to me.

I always practice partial panel approaches without the GPS, but when it
happened in real life I was very happy to have it as a workload reducer.
