Here is the original question:

As we know by pressing the TOGAs once it will only give us a reduced goaround thrust so I assume Boeing wants us to push them twice, is that correct?
Boeing does not mention pressing it twice during the automatic procedure,just to press the toga switch,get the pitch and check GA thrust is annunciated on the FMA(yes people still must read the FMA during auto windshear GA)
Durimg the manual,boeing states to aggressively apply MAX thrust.

So yes i believe Boeing expect the crews to know 2 clicks needed to get MAX thrust,one click to get reduced,when thrust stabilised another click to get N1 limit thrust (what I believe they call MAX and NOT FiREWALL which may over thrust the engine,at least momentarely while the EEC tries to cope with the thrust lever yanking).

There.I am done here.
