They were under a VFR approach, or at least the day was clear, so anyone looking out the window (and glancing at the airspeed indicator) would have seen they were slow, and not aimed at the runway. Even if they were on an instrument approach the system should have known better than to do that, or to let them do that without all kinds of warnings.

How can you pull up for a go-around if you're already too slow to land?
