Thrust to flare? 737

I've seen this technique a few times now with different pilots:

A few feet off the deck in the flare, the pilot jams the T/L forward and pulls it back just as rapidly. It wasn't for a gust, just for. . . ?

I can think of a few reasons not to do this. Can anyone come up with a good reason to do this? 737CL-NG.
