Where's the "autothrottle" in the EAD you quote? From the article we all comment:
"Jacobsen points out that the FAA’s emergency directive after the Lion Air crash lists the procedure pilots should follow — but omits the instruction on the autothrottle and fails to mention that it could malfunction."
The way I understand it, that's the new information in the article to which you respond with quoting... exactly the very EAD which obviously lacks any mention of it, confirming the claims from the article.
