I think this article portrays a lack of understanding of conversational dynamics based on my experience with people.
Interruption isn't black and white and to me there is nothing nice about people who interrupt by default. Still I usually don't don't mind interruptions when in a friendly brainstorming or casual conversation with good people. But the interrupter has to understand that he's interrupting and do it in a good way.
But things like interrupting and going totally off topic, interrupting to argue or interrupting when power dynamics are at play is entirely a different beast. I feel like the first version I mentioned should have a different name than this one.
