I've noticed the same thing. In in-person conversation, I'm usually slow on the draw when it's time for the next person to speak, and if I'm with interrupters, they almost always beat me to it. But in video calls, the extra round trip of lag gives me just enough quiet to signal that it's my turn to talk, so I don't get shut out quite as much. Even if someone else is quicker on the draw, I've already started talking, so I don't just instinctively shut up when I hear another person going first.
