It sounds like by "interrupting" you mean "speaking when a line of reasoning has not been finished", whereas Kaj meant "speaking when there is no pause". It seems to me that the latter kind of interrupting only has the benefit that you say it does when the expected behavior is to speak for a long time without any pauses that could be used for the former kind of interrupting.
