I'm disappointed that you still don't seem to grasp a point I made more than once (see f.e. my post #520 on page 26):
When flying at alphamax, thrust controls altitude through speed:
Increase thrust - speed goes up - lift goes up - airplane goes up
Decrease thrust - speed goes down - lift goes down - airplane goes down
