Straw man argument.... 99.9% of the time they don't fail and they save lives.

I can assure I do know what an impending stall feels like. However, for most people, it doesn't take much distraction for them to miss the sensations.. Our miserable safety record proves that.

The entirety of aviation, excluding gliders, has found AoA/stall warning systems necessary whether it's high performance jets or airliners. Presumably, the professionals flying them can feel a stall developing but their stall warning systems are still a no-go item.
