Actually everything in the MCDU was still there. Just some spurious ECAM which disappeared after Engines start.
After acceleration phase also the FMGS assumed descent phase instead of climb phase. Just needed to reinsert cruise altitude to recover.
But yes I agree.

Are inbound planes required to be towed in?
Arf, it was ridiculous since the construction was quite far and I could not see any workers at that time and we entered the gate on idle thrust so why not be able to push back on idle power on single engine is beyond my understanding.
As you said, my main concern was the passengers as it was almost night time and a hot day. I was afraid, one of them would be claustrophobic and freaked out but luckily clear announcement was made to explain the situation and according to the CFA the pax were fairly calm.
