I'd like to repeat that being unstable or negative stability is NOT desirable for any airplane, as the pilot, or today electronics and hydraulics, have to work all the time for a controlled flight.
For commercial planes, were safety is the highest priority, positive stability is desirable.
For fighters, or aerobatic planes, neutral stability is the non plus ultra.
