I don't see why so many people get het up about non-moving thrust levers. If A/THR engaged, you don't move them, if in manual THR, you do move them. This the same principle in both both Boeings and Airbuses.
Bottom line: Monitor A/T response; if this doesn't work, use manual thrust.
The two or three most significant & well-known accidents/incidents I can think of where crew failed to monitor approach speed, and assumed the A/THR was working when it wasn't, were all Boeings. So what does that say about the benefits on moving thrust levers? (
