I think it is easier to think. Then to apply appropriate behaviour. to quote a classic "in aviation flexible is too rigid - you need to be fluid"
As a reluctant airbusser for more than 8 years now a person who yells "I have control and the radios Ecam actions" at me at 2 in the morning at FL360" for a pack fault, cabin fan or some other innocuous line on the Ecam is going to be met with a rather deep sigh and a face similar to this.
APPROPRIATE BEHAVIOUR PEOPLE.

Although One Head up at all time is valid task sharing practice it is not one of the four Airbus golden rules.
I do remember 8 golden rules, with one head up at all times being number 3. Something has changed recently ?

There are only four. I do not know if there were 8 before.
Airbus golden rules.
1. Fly, navigate and communicate.
in this order and with appropriate task sharinig.
2. Use the appropriate level of automation at all times.
3. Understand the FMA at all times.
4. Take action if things do not go as expected.
