And it is not a momentary confusion either, it is a persistent pitch up command. There were two other pilots there who did not react to this inconsistent action by the PF which makes it all the more puzzling
My emphasis added

We do not know that the others didn't react, as the report does not tell us either way.
Agree that the report is very light on some details but that does bring up a question in my (obviously not heavy pilot) mind:

Given the lack of feedback/coupling between the 2 sets of controls what other immediate clues are available to the PNF on the action the PF is taking?

Note: This is a sincere question not an attempt to stir the A/B pot.
