That's the point - in real ops you get very very busy, very quickly. You don't get issued an extra set of ears and an extra mouth for all the radios, nor the extra eyes to look out, or to look in for link management, ESM / DAS, plan revisions over long vul times, tank as a receiver and, god forbid, actually doing the basic aviate, navigate and communicate bit!
