On the 737 you can push the button and engage it, OR push the control column and at a certain threshold it’ll default to CWS. OR, you doof up the box and it no longer has a path to follow. OR, there is some sort of dual FMC failure. It’s not a pretty mode in most cases, but it can be useful for dv8ing around weather.
