They did train recovery scenario on simulator and know how plane should behave (based on old model knowledge) - now it behaves differently. All you wrote is they should ignore it as not important detail and stick to the checklist.

Unexpected situations are always extra cognitive burden.

From my perspective, it is a human factors issue that Boeing failed to consider.

Yes, the emergency procedure remained the same, but even well-trained pilots are still people. And changing the behavior of the system in such situations was not well-advised.
