While the FAA has the motto "Everything that we haven´t forbidden is allowed", EASA thinks that "Everything we have not specifically approved in writing is prohibited"....
Yup...

actually all these 12 months recency rules aren’t backed up by any EASA regulations ; as long as you have a valid type rating and the relevant experience then you can join an operator conversion course regardless of the time you have spent on the ground, even if somebody’s selling ice creams. That’s why it’s a stupid rule out of nowhere that prevents loads of highly qualified professionals to actually APPLY for a job (not talking about being hired).
