You’re talking here as an engineer, not a guy who regularly seat in a simulator and has to deal with the amount of malfunctions and emergencies.
Also, I have never read in an official documentation that touching the wheel when autotrim was operative, was prohibited. But shame or not, as RF4 mentioned, interfering with the autotrim is not a procedure, nothing to encourage a pilot to do so.
