4) As you says, I repeat, I can be that some accidents not reported as result of a past investigation. A plane is losing its wings during recovery from a dive? The first accident of this kind required an investigation, probably also the second one... but how many until it's clear that the plane can be pull so much and it become ?

#4 Again, unquantifiable speculation

It is not speculation. It is a fact, the early mark Spitfire had neutral to unstable longitudinal stability at normal and aft CG. It is a fact, the controls were too light and too effective.
This combination is why you see the warnings in the Operating Notes.
It was real and it could kill you if ignored.
