The problem is that on a plane that requires 2 pilots, you are never _SOLE_ manipulator of controls.
That verbiage is more applicable to things like 2 pilot operation in a PC12 under 135 IFR, where the SIC is a required crewmember (unless PIC has 297(g) check), but can also log PIC as sole manipulator of controls even when he is not acting PIC.
