SyENG, I have posted in a lot less technical detail what you just said that the pilot physically brought both TL's to idle but somehow the FDR and engines did not get the data because of a possible linkage failure downstream of the TL's but was blasted saying the pilots left the #2 throttle in climb and could not have retarded to idle. I agree with you that what they physically did with the #2 TL and what the computers sensed has not been verified at this point in the investigation.
