What I meant to say is that it sounds like a classic "get caught in a storm because you really want to get home"

They have flight plans and paths that need to be followed, which they were on. They climbed rapidly and more rapid than the aircraft should be allowed to do under normal circumstances. The article refers to the Air France crash which did the same thing, rapid climb till the aircraft stalled. Because of faulty information the aircraft could not recover and it crashed in the ocean. My bet is that something similar to the Air France crash where temporary inconsistency between the measured speeds, likely as a result of the obstruction of the pitot tubes by ice crystals, causing autopilot disconnection and reconfiguration to alternate law. Which then led to a number of bad choices. Because they were flying at night and in bad weather there are no visual reference indicators like the horizon, sun or even stars.
This is the link to the final report for than crash from BEA.

Boy, can I relate ot that.
He said investigators were still looking into whether turbulence or updrafts contributed to the plane’s drastic climb as repeated stall warnings were heard clearly on the cockpit recording within four minutes until the end of the recording since the plane reached more than 8 degrees of its pitch angle.

If they really did pull up like a fighter aircraft, excessive wing loading may have folded them up, and they drop like a stone.
... another fly-by-wire Scarebus nightmare. Maybe, some defective instrument told them they were descending rapidly, they pull back, stall, etc.

Fly by wire has nothing to do with a stall.
It does if the sensors are giving false readings and the computer is flying the plane according to them.
It appears you have no understanding of the term fly by wire.
That's okay. The Flight Reorder will tell the whole story.

Shouldn't they have been able to feel that they weren't in a freefall regardless of what the instruments indicated?
