>DSLRs don't have apps and games etc on them.

A pilot that lacks the discipline and or professionalism to stop himself from playing Flappy Birds instead of doing his job isn't going to magically become fit-for-purpose just because you took his toy away.

+1 there are lots of moving screens and distractions in the cockpit... A lot of being a good pilot is dealing with a ton of input and paying attention to the important things.

I don't necessarily agree with the rules, I am just looking at possible reasonings for them.

As to professionalism and temptation, they do come in shades of grey.
