Stick force doesn't refer to how effective any stick movement is.
Roughly speaking, stick force is the amount of force the pilot has to to apply to the stick to achieve a given movement of the control surfaces.
As the airplane gets closer to a stall, you want to make it harder for the pilot to pull it fully into the stall, by increasing the required stick force.
If the stick force decreased as the airplane approached a stall, then the pilot would have to actively push the stick back into more stable flight.
