Sorry about using the wrong term - I'm not a "bus" guy - just under the impression that AFloor was driven by an AoA that when approached disallowed any further increase in AoA and would command an increase in thrust (to TOGA - regardless of throttle position) and a retraction of any speed brake extended. In that there were no speed brakes deployed and (virtually) zero thrust available, the only thing that was accomplished was the disallowance to further increase AoA - regardless of the sidestick position.
