Default RE: Trim question

Engine thrust angles are usually preset on most planes for optimum performance. Changing the thrust angle to compensate for trim corrections would seem to open up a whole new set of problems. Ground looping, poor vertical, and differing tendencies directly related to throttle setting are a few that come to mind. I could be dead wrong but I have never heard of trimming a plane by changing thrust angles.
