Just do what boeing says and let him mark you down for it. This will make him look Silly. Not you. Btw i would adopt the procedure he is advocating if I discontinue the approach from higher up but at 1000' you are already established. Stick to the basics. Hit TOGA first and then lvl chg when appropriate (which maybe very shortly after)
I had a SIM session B737 on final ATC says go around cca 250AGL. I hit TOGA nothing happened (TOGA switch failure). A/T, A/P disconnect, Either F/D OFF or reset NAV frequencies and THEN select an appropriate roll and vertical (HDG LNAV, VNAV or LVLCH mode. Using LVL CHG for normal G/A is not according to Boeing procedures. !!
