Are 'Single 180 Turn From Downwind to Final' and 'Stall-spin onTurn from Base to Final' mutually exclusive?
One important factor is speed: As we all know, aircraft fall if a wing or a large part of it goes too slow. The glider does not stall because you fly too slow, it stalls because the wing reaches a critical angle of attack. That is why when you deflect an aileron you can stall a good chunk of a wing.

Fly into the top of a rotor in the same direction as the circulation
and you will gain some altitude, lose airspeed and increase alpha - then deal with the consequences.
