Your statement is correct, the value typically being 14 degrees (ish). My point was that when pushing negative g, the AoA is reducing, and therefore if not stalled previously, the stall warner should assuredly NOT commence at that point, ergo it is porked.
Evidently if you were to push massive negative g, you could incurr a negative AoA in excess of the critical angle - and the aerofoil would stall, but this state of affairs would only last as long as the wings remained attached!
I'd be interested to hear if anyone else gets this?

Why would you think that?
A stall occurs when the angle between the airfoil and the relative wind exceeds a critical value. That "critical angle" is +- degrees to the relative wind (although the critical angle might be different between the two depending on the airfoil shape).
I'm sure there might be problems in the FM somewhere, but this doesn't sound like one of them.
