I know some people that have the AMEX Reserve, and then keep an Aeroplan Visa Infinite as a backup since AMEX isn't accepted everywhere. Looks like that's also not allowed.
And what about if you're switching between banks? If you have > 1 card for a short period while you transition do you run afoul of the rules?
If you're spending enough on the cards to get the companion pass every year, then I don't think you're the kind of person they're trying to stop.
