Again as I understand it, in the absence of the autothrust, just using the 'Climb' detent could have been either too much for the situation or insufficient to maintain level flight?
- To move the thrust levers in the CLB detent is part of the drill for UAS.
- At FL350 with no A/THR the output is absolutely the same whatever the thrust levers position from CLB to MCT to TOGA.

It has to be done by manually moving the thrust levers - No PB.
