[...] you can get the yoke all the way back and the stall horn on just a
second before touchdown.



If the stall horn is on only a second before touchdown, you have not stalled
the airplane. The stall horn sounds well before you reach the stalling
angle of attack.


True, but only a few knots above in the Cessna's I've flown 150 - 182.
If you keep smoothly pulling back the yoke, the airspeed will bleed into
stall territory very shortly after you get a full stall horn.
