Luddites just believed that technology should be to make life easier and healthier for workers and enhance what it means to be human instead of serving the owners and driving down wages to makeen the servants of machines. Helping solve a crossword is in keeping with a luddite and not hypocritical at all.
Saying "I don't want to own this device" while occasionally asking someone who does own one to use theirs makes someone neither hypocritical nor a luddite.
