Are you relating a firsthand experience? Or have you got a cite?

I have done rolls (aileron and snap), spins, hammerheads, loops.

As have I.

So you have no firsthand experience with a wing separation, but you
presume to lecture with authority on that subject?

Try it yourself. Suspend a wet sponge attached to a string from the top
of your cockpit. Perform a series of rapid aileron rolls.

Why? Do you think an aileron roll is one of the flight modes that
occurs as a result of wing separation? I would expect a the result to
more resemble a snap roll.

Which way does the sponge move?
Does it stay in one place?

The fact that a pilot experiences anomalous G loads during aerobatic
maneuvers is well accepted; there's no necessity for empirical
confirmation IMO.

Repeat while performing a multiturn upright spin, adding power once the
spin has developed.

This is a very stable maneuver. There should be no real difficulty
exiting the aircraft in this configuration IMO.

Repeat while performing a multiturn inverted spin, again adding power
once the spin has developed.

Um... No thanks. A spin has no relevancy to the topic IMO.
