Well, when you trim you are not realy assisted by the wind, because the little surface still has to go on to airflow, but i understand what raaid says, if we know how it works it is logical to think like that. It becomes unmultiplied like in a pulley. But i dont think rotating a weel several turns will be faster than pulling or pushing the column control. Just my opinion, i am not plane expert.

I have heard accounts of hurricanes in the far East falling into dives that were too steep to pull out of due to speed, only surviving by using elevator trim to slowly gain leverage to pull back the control column.

exactly the wise comunity called this a bat turn and due to the outrage of people losing for not being able to control two things at the same time devs delayed the trim or supressed it practically
