Don't agree.

With you right hand on the Airbus thrust levers they are located forward in the CLB detent and not fully back closed.

On the 777 they should also be located about half way forward controlling normal approach thrust and not fully back closed. In addition to that you should feel them moving and this gives you more feedback ( which unfortunately the Airbus doesn't )

Even if he was confused during this complicated visual approach in CAVOK what the hell were the TC in the RHS and the FO in the jump seat doing????

No excuses I'm afraid.
