If you fly them by hand, in the 737 you have to pull to raise the nose. So you have in the 320. In both you have to push to lower de nose. And so on. The only difference is in the autotrim (which makes it easier) and the lack of feel. You still have to decide if you need to pitch up or down.
... and then the bus decides to ignore your pull to avoid a unsafe but automatically induced descent ...

Brave new world, and on top of that it seems by reading some contributions, a much venerated brave new world!
