I am clueless about the 350, with the smaller ones your choices are
- Idle
- present thrust as commanded by the A/THR
- anything above CL which you need to then reduce using MAN thr (an obscured mode reversion)

The range between the commanded thrust and CL+ is not readily available with a reflex action. Also, it is not possible to prevent the a/thr from reducing unwisely with a handy intervention.
