737NG Loss of thrust on both engines

Hello folks
My questions on this memory recall checklist are these:
After completing the memory portion of it it says further down that Do not wait for successful engine start(s) before starting the APU does that mean that as soon as it's recognized that we lost thrust on both engines we can already start the Apu before doing the memory items?
The reason i' m asking this is because the FCTM says:
Initiate the memory portion of the LOSS OF THRUST ON BOTH ENGINES NNC before attempting an APU starts which contradicts part 7 of the checklist.If the windmill restart is not successful,an APU should be initiated as soon as practical to provide electrical power and starter assist during follow-on engine start attempts,then why this is the case?

Best regards
