I figured it was the ultimate in risk management, and less of a cultural thing. They didn't want to relinquish control of the machinery as technology was their domain. I think it was the opening monologue that stated that they were the most technologically superior. The only way to effectively neutralise the power that Chor Tempest had was ensure the priestesses were ineligible to fly them. Hence the pressure to go to the spring.
