How many times a year does a b777 pilot select TOGA by firewalling the thrust levers?

And how many times a year does that same pilot select TOGA from the switches?

When you have had an unexpected go around (and it must be last second, otherwise the wheels wouldn't touch) and muscle memory kicks in for TOGA, is there not a danger that the "wrong" procedure is applied, as it's the one always used?

In other words, in a procedure that is seldom performed and unexpectedly required at the last second you have to apply a different procedure to achieve the same outcome as the procedure that you follow on a near daily basis.
