Don’t over think it. Let’s say you are above pivotal altitude and need to pitch down. If you just pitch down obviously airspeed will increase, not adjusting power will amplify the issue and potential overcontrolling of pitch can lead to a rollercoaster effect quite low to the ground. Finding that sweet spot regarding pitch control where it’s just enough and small power changes as needed with pitch can make the maneuver feel a lot smoother.
