Yes. And NO. In a powered system, especially one with a tagalong "Trimmer" (also described as a variable incidence wing set), it is a bit more complicated? "Stop the Roll". "Relax back stick".

Ab initio complaints from the CFI? Once rolling an A330, or Pitching it, with a "helper" as big as my house, the Physics is different? Not really, perhaps surprising is more accurate.

IF PF's first NU was in some way additive to an existing rotation of some description, it explains a bit how the rotation could have been emphatic enough to elicit 7kfpm? If he held it enough (before the seat started to really push him up!) to allow that big slab to acquire the power to really move her tail, Bob is then someone's uncle........?

The BEA later mention "repeated ND inputs" by the Pilot, but have they attached these to an attempt to recover from the climb? BEA's bon mots need to be sorted by time on a linear graph, perhaps that is forthcoming.
