That’s exactly what it is.
A/THR is disconnected to allow manual control of the thrust.
Nothing else.
To not be confused with :
L’autopoussée est débrayée de façon permanente afin d’inhiber l’activation d’ALPHA FLOOR.
A/THR is permanently disconnected to inhibit Alpha Floor activation.
FCOM
The A/THR system is disconnected for the remainder of the flight.
ALPHA FLOOR is lost.
