There's an A/T disconnect switch but the entire approach was carried out in LNAV/VNAV,by pressing the speed switch i was trying to disconnect A/T on Arm mode just for the alpha floor protection,my question then is:why is this imcompatible with VNAV?

As VNAV controls both pitch and thrust, I guess the SPD selection is incompatible as it doesn't know what you want to do with the pitch mode.
Minimum speed reversion is available in VNAV, so there's no need to try to change mode.
