The danger also exists when pulling up sharply in to
a thermal and pushing over hard at the top of the pull
up then starting a turn in reduced G.
Do people really enter thermals this way? I've never seen anyone do
this. I might pull up at as much as 1.5 g momentarily, but just let it
bleed down to 1 g and start a turn. What is the value in pushing hard
at the top, instead of just entering a turn?

Depends on how long you hold the 1.5G. Hold it long enough and you might
get a steep pitch up that requires forward stick to get the nose down for
the turn. Rush it and things get interesting.
