Why? The only reason it would need to be in the report would be if they tried it in a simulated session and it didn't work as it was supposed to.
Why would they try in a simulated session as a sim is not representative of real life.
Our sim experiences were for fun only, we did report what we saw, that's it.

The tremendous amount of messages and interest around the THS show that adequat information is clearly needed in the official documentation or through the BEA reports as last ressort.
You have demonstrated already your misconception.
I, as an Airbus pilot, would need to know much more.
