Why shouldn't you make a call with the USB cable plugged in? Respectively use it at all?

I've often made and received calls with the USB cable plugged in. And don't see any problems with that.
Which manual, what phone or tablet?
As that's something I've never seen before, and I've read dozens of phone and tablet manuals.
Well that looks like Xiaomi been rather over zealous in the "SAFETY ADVICE" section. It also tells you not to use the phone and make calls in a bathroom. For that sort of thing, I just think use some common sense, like don't try and do calls while taking a shower, but answering calls, browsong the web etc. while sat on the toilet is okay.
Most companies tend to completely over the top in the legal and safety sections of their manuals, especially in the US, because of possible lawsuits, etc. I'm suprised it hasn't got the Proposition 65 thing, with the State of Califiornia warning you that your phone can cause cancer.

But one might slip off the bowl and the phone could fall into the bathtub then while hitting your head on the bowl.
Yes, but actually one might think there must be a sensible reason (if possible at all, does not sound like that first of course) or something like that, that the telephone should not be used with a cable being plugged in. Very strange. May be one should add something like: Don't touch the phone at full moon if you hear a ring tone.
