By now it should be clear to you that you cannot learn from PP anything other than how other's do their thing. You may quote Airbus technique, SOP, any logic but nobody is really interested. Some critisize even without understandin the subject. You are correct you do announce changes to Flight modes (select/managed) and FMA and only from the PFD because unless you see it there it hasn't happened but still you will have to follow your airline SOP.
