I can't find a source right now but I remember reading that there had been a few cases where there had been an emergency situation and pilots had ignored stall warnings, resulting in the plane stalling and crashing. This was why Boeing had elected to make the system on the 737 Max 8 override the pilots inputs.

I think having an emergency system that overrides the pilot is fine, but it is crucial that the pilot can easily and quickly disable such a system when they know the plane is doing the wrong thing.

I remember that being about pilots' becoming over-sensitized to visual (red lights) over audio ("stall warning" audio) warnings during a crisis, often ignoring the audio inadvertently (i.e. not hearing it).
