It works the same for devices in explore mode. I was mainly refering to not being able to store blocks easily. Sure you can place the blocks and then mine them later, but that's not exactly easy especially if you have several stacks of blocks that you want to keep but don't need to carry with you. The main point of that paragraph was just to point out that you can use slots that probably weren't intended as inventory space to carry blocks around.
