a) rated Airbus pilots who do not find the interface confusing
b) technical experts who are interested in analysing the interface
c) others who may not be pilots who are contributing to the analysis from intuitive principles
d) rated Boeing pilots who are wary of the thrust-lever interface on Airbus machines
Please include:
e) pilots who have flown AI, Boeing and MD new generation aircraft and have their well founded opinion based on experience (and still get lectured by self proclaimed expert pilots who have only flown one of the above but defend it feverishely)

I stand by my earlier comment: If the THR levers would move, this particular incident would most probably have been detected rapidly enough to enable the crew (who most probably have screwed up something) to counteract early enough to prevent this accident.

Simple
