It appears it had more to do with gear extension than flaps.
Well that is one way to read it! Yet the Loss of B & Y Hyds (again with single Elevator) does not have the same restriction.
The other way to read it is that that with the loss of G & B Hyds, A/T should be off in order to help control pitch and the aircraft should be in Direct Law before the selection of Flaps.
