I know.
The point I was trying to make was that it was the Flight Law that was determining the position of the control surfaces and not the AP.
Therefore my reference to Normal Law to make this difference a bit clearer.
In this case after AP disconnect the system would have soon/immediately/at the same time switched to Roll Direct Law and thus very likely to control surfcaes neutral.
Control surfaces neutral means just that. It doesn't mean the aircraft will try to level the wings. But it means the ailerons will not actively contribute to further roll after change to Roll Direct Law (AP doesn't enter into the equation at all), only inertia and/or other forces will.
