It's true that that scenario is not relevant, but the fact that there is a direct connection between the usb ports for charging stuff and the planes' computer is obviously a point of intrusion for attacks like Stuxnet.

Might be the case that the USB ports are for interacting with the plane's computers, and the charging being done by the pilots is against the rules.
