it is becoming clear that indeed there is a problem in the AB A320 when landing with one reverser locked out. Why I fail to understand because it looks so simple and easy for the two TLs being placed on Idle for the landing...

In response to the first statement: What other jet aircraft do you land with one engine at climb thrust? None. Always at idle. This aircraft has been around for about 20 years. If there have been about 3 of these incident/accidents in that time I can't see it being an aircraft problem as much as being a very serious short circuit between the side stick and the back of the seat.
The first landing you ever did, what were you tought to do with the throttle?

The second statement: Yea no kidding so simple like not flying through thunderstorms. But someone regularly has to reinvent the wheel as square to show round was better in the first place. Remember to KISS when you fly.
