Default A Q on AutoThrottle

Yeah, on all the yoke type air carriers I've flown the yoke moves when the
autopilot makes inputs.

Exactly; at least that's how it is in the A320. And there's no
corresponding movement of the sidestick either when the A320 is rolled
by the AutoPilot (I'm unsure whether there's such movement in aircraft
with yokes).
