That is a regulatory rather than a practical restriction. And you only need a
very small number of hours of flight in a real aircraft.

In the future, I suspect that pilots will be trained without any time in a
real aircraft, mainly to save money.


Delusional.

Tell us: does the simulator simulate a stall?


Yes.


Sure it does, including the feeling of falling when the stall breaks and
the increased G load as you pull out.
