Depends on how well you know your engines.... If you KNEW that would cause a compressor stall and loss of thrust... maybe not. But I agree it would be a near-instinctive reaction.
Also we don't know what the FOD from those trees did.
OR : would you firewall throttles and pull a taj mahal à la EK GANN? Some of you will know what this means...
I do.
