I think that was a joke, the PNF generally does what is asked of him on the box during flight. If the PF wants to set up something involved (a nice picture to base a visual on or an unstored instrument approach) then he asks PNF to 'mind the ship' or even formally hands over control.
As with many things discipline helps and yes, two heads down is bad and you see problems arise due to it in the sim especially but it is avoidable and not specific to the Airbus.
