B737 NG/MAX - Go Around with CWS

Was J/S in the cockpit the other day on one of our 737 MAX 8.

The guys got told to go around.
The Capt, PF, pressed CWS, adjusted the MCP and then CMD again. Increased speed, HDG SEL and V/S 2000fpm.

Very smooth I must say.
I always thought the guys pressed TO/GA but the Capt explained that it disconnects the autopilot on the 737.
He said he can fly without but by pressing CWS and then CMD, it puts the automatics back in.

Very strange how Boeing kicks out the autopilot when you press TOGA.
