Restricting them actually make sense. Clerics are generic priests that can worship any particular god the player chose, so they need to have versatility so that players can customize them as they want. But druids follow a particullar faith, so it make sense they would have some restrictions.

My only complaint is that they dumbed down that restriction. In first edition if I remember well, they specified you couldn't use complex items made of metals because those were not from nature and you had to plunder nature to get them, os something like that. Now they just arbitrally list stuff and doesn't explain why they can't use anything else.
