That is NOT true. I just looked up a 737 QRH from 2014, the Runaway Stabilizer Checklist included step 3 as “Autothrottles if engaged, disengage”.
After the first accident they made the first 4 steps immediate action memory items (boxed). Ethiopian Airlines should’ve had this change in their QRH and QRC before their accident but I believe they only had received a memo, according to what I skimmed at avherald.com.
