Why would you pull the thrust levers back against the A/T even if ATC said stop climb now?????????????????????
Surely you'd select ALT HOLD and let the machine do it for you? Including any required thrust reduction to keep the speed under control. Selecting ALT HOLD generates a much faster pitch response than selecting VS, try it yourself and see.
If a TCAS RA requires manoeuving then you are supposed to disconnect the A/P and A/T.
Likewise manually flying a Windshear escape manoeuver you have to disconnect the A/T and manually advance to max thrust.
Even hand flying I can't see myself fighting FL CH and pulling the thrust off, just disconnect the damn thing if you need to.
