Yet, from FCTM PURPOSE:
The FCTM provides the flight crew with:
‐ The general Airbus operational philosophy (e.g. design and utilization principles, golden rules for pilots)
‐ Additional information to the FCOM procedures (the “why" to do and the “how" to do)
‐ Best practices, operating techniques on maneuvers, and handling
‐ Information on situational awareness.
Basically, it depends on the scenario...
