Here's more old fashioned stuff. When the conventional a/c (Airbus) is flying, it gets to change what is effectively the Angle of Incidence of the HS, but when the a/c gives it back to the pilot, he has to control Pitch with what amount essentially to "Trim Tabs" (elevators). Manually "trimming" the big slabs back to a neutral AOI, is an extra task to get the a/c back to "neutral".

No?
