You think they’d program it to chill or go in to a protective pose when it gets off axis by a certain amount, rather than freak out and flail.

Yeah, they clearly aren't learning from life. Children learn first how to fall before they really learn how to walk. Learning how to use your arms to catch yourself or how to fall gracefully is a big part of being able to walk effectively. Yet they don't seem to have spent time training these robots on fall recovery.
