Default RE: B52 without ailerons?

I would disagree that the outboard ailerons were used only with flaps extended to prevent wing twisting. The inboard aileron was all that was neadded at high speed for adequate control. The spoilers were active in all flight configurations. The outboard ailerons were needed only at landing speeds.
