Once you start IFR flying you'll find that on the ILS, your position on the glideslope (pitch) is controlled by elevators and your speed (to keep the CAT behind from going up your chuff) is controlled by throttle (Power).
I've heard this one before, not saying it's wrong but on an ILS approach I always use the throttle to control glideslope.
