Yup, your approach is certainly consistent with the PTS. Private
pilots are expected to perform slow flight at "an airspeed at which
any further increase in angle of attack, increase in load factor, or
reduction in power, would result in an immediate stall", and recover
from power-off and power-on stalls "with a minimum loss of altitude
appropriate for the airplane".
There's a difference between being able to demonstrate this and being
comfy or even competent doing it. .
That's true.
The CFIs who taught me treated practice stalls as routine and expected
their students to do so too. But I don't know if that's typical these
days, or if I was just lucky.
