Indeed it’s pretty interesting how differently people relate to it. My main personal reason for liking it is actually enjoyment, and part of that relates to efficiency but even more importantly it’s because people interrupt in this way naturally when they are truly interested in what you’re talking about and have thoughts about it too, and those conversations are just gonna be more fun.

I agree with you. Furthermore, I think, the interrupt stance doesn't prevent you from attentively listen to what others say. You can absolutely listen a person talking for a long time. The opposite not being true.

However in an educational context like described in the article, if think that waiting for the other to finish is better as it allow a better analysis and criticism of the whole argument development.
