Your explanation of low inertia is very strange. Airbus FBW does not violently pitch down to capture speed. The AP maintains a steady comfortable pitch down rate that doesn't change and because of that you need to reduce thrust gradually otherwise you drop your speed. Also it is more evident at higher weight rather than lower weight.
