Safety first.

Yep, go ahead, try leveling off with an AI ERRONEOUSLY showing a 20
pitch up. Go ahead and trust that instrument.

Hey try it in your simulator. I bet you will crash and burn in your
simulated environment.

Not for me thanks in a real airplane. I will trust but verify every
time I leave terra firma including using the seat of my pants to
verify power inputs..

This method has worked for me in the past six years of my instrument
flying, and I sure won't change it because you say put my life in
instruments without crosschecking and verifying it. Don't get me
wrong, I am still a student every time I walk on the ramp, and got
plenty to learn and open to it, but when you tell me what I feel and
do is incorrect and you have never experience the sensation of flight
in a GA plane, you have NO credibility.

With your attitude, I am glad you are using a simulator, as you
wouldn't survive the basic 180 turn for VFR pilots much less slogging
along in the clag for a couple of hours to terminate that flight with
an approach that required procedure turns and circle to land that was
one of my major accomplishments in my small corner of the world..
