The instability in the NACA report is, that a constant stick input, say one inch back with 6lbs pressure, led to a ever increasing g-load, and that was the malus for the Spitfire controls.
The ideal reaction would have been i. e. pull the stick 3 inches back with 15 lbs pressure and get a constant 5 g pull up.
