The net result is that below 400 ft, by the time the autothrust responds the speed can be very low - I've seen 12 kts low - and whilst N1 is increasing, there is little increase in thrust.
So you've actually watched it get 12 knots below Vapp on final below 400ft!

Why bother keep your hand on the TLs then?
