Hopefully, you did not quoted me (it was Bearfoil's) as I'm neither an "expert", neither puzzled about the non-use of manual trim!!!
Nonetheless, you seem to be the one highly suffering from tunnel vision about a "manual" THS non-existant issue (related to AF447).
Quite simply, if you don't pitch down, autotrim won't certainly trim nose down, no? Then, why would you pitch up your nose
and manually trim down your THS? Where would be the logic and what is the real issue?
Ask yourself!
Then maybe you'll understand why either "manual" nor "autotrim" are a
NON issue from what is published so far from the investigation.
After this point, your comments seems a bit moot.
