Don't think they waited untill 02:10:51 to perform the drill, so the T/L was initially moved to a position between CLB and TOGA.
More probably, the T/L had to be moved to a position aft of the CLB detent in order to match a usual requested N1 for FL350 at M.80
Then, in this saturated environment, it is also very possible that the T/L were simply forgotten and remained in the CLB detent for 45 seconds until they were moved directly to TOGA.

But BEA knows ...

Enough to say that the PNF did not touch his sidestick before 10000 feet ... BEA told us.
