Not a rebuttal or criticism, but it all depends on when or if the TOGA button was pressed and the subsequent action or inaction. This from the FCTM:

Note: An automatic go-around cannot be initiated after touchdown.

Go-Around after Touchdown
If a go-around is initiated before touchdown and touchdown occurs, continue with
normal go-around procedures. The F/D go-around mode will continue to provide
go-around guidance commands throughout the maneuver.
If a go-around is initiated after touchdown but before thrust reverser selection,
auto speedbrakes retract and autobrakes disarm as thrust levers are advanced. The
F/D go-around mode will not be available until go-around is selected after
becoming airborne.


I think Glofish may be correct if GA was initiated after a touchdown. Likewise Piratepete, I can't remember seeing or doing it in anger and it's been so long since I was shown it in the sim, I forget.
