Note: the other issue is power and pitch coupling. By using the AT and pushing the TO/GA buttons once, you will get a manageable reduced N1 sufficient for a 1000-2000fpm climb. Once the N1 has reached that reduced limit, you can push the TO/GA buttons a second time to get full TO/GA N1. This prevents underswung issues with sudden thrust. However, if you simply firewall the thrust levers you might get more than you bargained for in pitch, especially if your pitch trim is so inclined and your mind is fatigued. THAT is why procedure is so important here.
