I find I can't talk to people who do that. Things don't flow, they don't work well, and both of us end up frustrated.
So that ends up being a limit for me, I just choose not to interact with people like that if I can help it, and communicating async if I have to.
In my experience, things work best when interrupters work with interrupters, and waiters work with waiters.
That's not to say someone can't switch styles, but the unfortunate reality is that it's easier if people don't have to do that. This results in the kind of self segregation that you do. I've also done that, by switching to a team that shared my communication style.
I don't know if this is good or bad, but it does seem to be the path of least resistance.
