Now read the rest of the notes and tell me where it says prohibited because it's a dangerous quality........it doesn't, it just tells you to use standard recovery techniques, not bail out because it's game over.
now go and read almost any other RAF pilots notes on any aircraft and you will see intentional spinning is 'prohibited' again not because the aircraft themselves are dangerous, it is simply because the maneuver is not regarded as necessary and the risks in spinning are universal.
p.s. how are the handling qualities of the Spitfire off topic?
