He engaged each autopilot seperately to find the malfunctioning one. It's a common phenomenon. I know that per our Ops Specs, we check each channel of a failed flight control system as well to isolate the problem and avoid any confusion on the current situation and unavaoidable write up and FAA report.
You're saying that after a violent pitch-up and approach to stall with the A/P, you'd try it again so that you'd have a more concise write-up for the MX folks? If my A/P shat on me like theirs apparently did, there's no way I'd re-engage it!
