I partially disagree with the article, this is my take on the topic.
Behaviour of each person:
| I interrupt you when I understand | I expect you to speak briefly | |
|---|---|---|
| I speak until you interrupt | (Church of) Interruption | Worst |
| I speak briefly | Best | (Church of) Civility |
What happens when a person on each row talks to a person on each column:
| Interruption | Civility | Best | Worst | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Interruption | OK | Don’t get interrupted and speak too much. | OK | Don’t get interrupted and speak too much. |
| Civility | Don’t interrupt and hear too much. | OK | OK | Don’t interrupt and hear too much. |
| Best | OK | OK | OK | OK |
| Worst | Don’t interrupt and hear too much. | Don’t get interrupted and speak too much. | OK | Both speak too much and hear too much. |
