I have time in Beech A23-34, Piper PA-28's and PA-32's, all with manual
flaps. With manual flaps you ease out one notch while simultaneously
easing in back yoke to maintain pitch attitude.

I know that. G During a stall recovery, the same procedure is
followed as the airspeed rises. If all is going well, the bar drops
only to the next notch.

You've NEVER had the bar slip past the next (or all the way to the
floor) notches? You know, your finger has a touch of pressure on the
button?

I've had it happen on my Sundowner and in several PA-28's.
