That bolt is in a Heim joint, and it does not move inside the part.  Move
the flap, and you will not see the bolt spinning with the movement. Now, I
am not saying that the rule does not apply here, I just don't think that it
does. Anyway, I used castle nuts on mine also, just to be sure.

confirmed in AC 43.13 par7-64a,
"DO NOT use self-locking nuts on parts subject to rotation."  I saw many
aircraft both experimental and certified that used locking nuts in
situations that I thought would have called for a castellated nuts and
cotter pins.  http://www.kr-2s.com/images/krnet/tecnam1_800.jpg
