Lowering the nose to gain airspeed in a fixed wing is generally
considered to be really poor flying skills, not to mention inviting
overspeed situations.


lol...

Obviously not a pilot. Or at least, not a skilled one. There are numerous
situations where airspeed is controlled with pitch, and the only way to
increase airspeed with pitch is to lower the nose.

For whatever reason, you have gotten your nose all bent out of shape for
nothing. But you might want to stop before you've dug yourself even deeper.
The more you talk about flying, the less it looks like you know.
