I don't know i= f there is a single right or wrong answer to this controversy, but here are= a couple of observations:
Years ago, twin engine training requir= ed demonstration of low-altitude engine-out proficiency.  That require= ment was dropped and the overall safety improved.  Years ago, spin dem= onstrations were required and then dropped - safety improved.  Another= observation:  All that have sided with stall training have warned abo= ut keeping coordinated (ball in the center).  I doubt that ANY inadver= tent stall is accompanied by a centered ball.  I haven't stalled my ES= .
