Try the same test at 10,000'. You'll find it pitched nose up a degree or two as the indicated air speed is significantly slower. I never worried about the KRs doing fast passes with their noses down. Every plane will do that as they are flying significantly faster than their designed cruise. Now, telling me it's 1 or 2 degrees nose down at cruise is meaningful. Although I see 1° nose up as almost insignificant as the higher you get, the more the nose will come up at cruise. So it's in the right ball park, depending on what altitudes you normally fly.
