Boeing 747 classic autothrottle servos drive through the clutch pack which gives the normal throttle friction so there will be little difference in load if the levers are moved against the direction the A/T servos are driving the levers. Cnot comment on other types except to say that I would expect that all systems will give much the same result - not much if any incresa in load to move levers against a runaway servo.
