That is true for the 738 as well, however the pilots can always user select the full climb thrust regardless. And that is exactly what AB, and apparently cptplaysations outfit as well, do. According to Boeing and CFM it has no negative impact on engine life and saves some fuel which accumulates to several million Euro a year quite fast.
