The mechanism of action of stall strips is to force the stall to
initial at a different section of wing. It does so by forcing the AOA
to increase over a local region and thus must raise the intrinsic
stall speed. The nature of the stall is effected by putting the strips inboard
and thus moving the initial stall from a possible outboard location
(interfering with the ailerons), to inboard.
Thus strips increase stall speed and alter the stall flight characteristics
by design and intent.
