That's the relevant difference. Please don't tell me you think it's
OK for pilots to talk on the radio mainly because the cognitive effort
is so much lower (allegedly, compared to phoning while driving).
The idea that the cognitive content of the conversation is
the dominant

from the fact that even in jurisdictions that forbid talking
on the phone
while driving, they allow talking to a passenger in the car ... which
involves the same cognitive content.
