Probably, as it happened in July last year. But I posted it because I am amazed the crew did not apply full power, either during the take-off run when they became aware of the incorrect acceleration, or immediately after leaving the ground when presumably the climb was rather shallow. Is it that crews place too much reliance on the auto-throttle system without maintaining a common sense overview? Or are there other factors at play here?
