Can anyone fill in some context? It sounds like a concern, but I don't know — is it?

More un-organized questions:
Would A320 pilots be likely not to know that there was a tailstrike? I see a report here that indicates it may not be obvious to the pilots (last paragraph of 'History of flight'). Is there a reporting / inspection procedure after a tailstrike on landing? Who is most likely to notice the tailstrike? And in this case, how was it ultimately known which among the at least eight potential sectors had the tailstrike?
