Haha yes of course! But we first change the pitch to adjust the vertical speed then adjust the thrust as required to maintain the speed. We don’t adjust thrust to achieve a targeted vertical speed. Increasing or decreasing thrust on A320 will not affect or barely the vertical speed directly as it’s pitch stable.
