I like to notice that "accelerated stalls" occurs even in a Zero fighter.

You’re right. Accelerated stalls can be achieved with any plane. I practiced them in a 100 hp trainer... The flying envelope of the P51 has nothing unusual. All planes have similar patterns, with different speed listed, as all aircraft obeys the same rules and fly through the same air.
Spin characteristic vary from type to type, of course, and can be more or less benign, more or less dangerous, but this has not much to do with wing loading.
