Bagot..
I think it is to do with FMGS flight phase.. and the SRS speed targets..
The FMGS is in TAKEOFF phase, SRS is controlling at V2+10 or V2 (OEI). There are also disengagement conditions for the various modes for us to think about - selection of TOGA does not disengage the Takeoff SRS mode, it is done by selection of a different pitch mode, or reaching acceleration altitude.

When you push V/S to level off at acceleration altitude the pitch mode changes and - if you now go from FLEX to TOGA with Flap 1 or more you will get G/A modes. So if you wish to use TOGA do so before AA...

In other words, you get the G/A combined mode in any phase except TAKEOFF.

If Airbus wrote everything in FCOM ... we would need brains the size of a planet.
