I suspect it's less about being puritanical about violence and nudity in and of themself, and more a blanket ban to make up for the inability to prevent the generation of actually controversial material (nude images of pop stars, violence against politicians, hate speech)

Put like that, it's a bit like the Chumra in Judaism [1]. The fence, or moat, around the law that extends even further than the law itself, to prevent you from accidentally commiting a sin.
