LOl. I bet you can’t even define ‘dead-stick landing’.

There is no way to disengage the FLCS.

Cut the crap.

“There is no way to disengage the FLCS.”

The FLCS can fail and it can also take a hit from AA and become disabled. At that point the pilot is on manual trim and the wheel comes into play.

Also, when flight control surfaces are damaged or disabled the FLCS is sometimes disengaged to prevent it from crashing the aircraft.
