I imagine that's just so there isn't a big finger/hand getting in the way of the camera. And because the phone is flat on the table for the video, you can't type on it like when you're holding it with your hand.

A non-issue in my opinion. I wouldn't have given it a second thought.

What's more - it's a capacitive screen, so unlike with the resistive ones, the stylus doesn't add much additional accuracy over the finger.
