(author here) I'm a tech lead. My job is to answer questions all day, but at the same time i need to actually do some tasks that require focus. I wanted to learn who is interrupting me, when, and why so that i could take measures to improve the situation. If Bob is always bugging me about X i could sit down with Bob and help him understand X better. If i'm always interrupted at a specific time of the day i could make sure i don't try and dive into anything that requires focus then. If many people are interrupting me about Y i can write documentation so they can answer their own questions.
As @borntyping said "The purpose is tracking who is interrupting and why, not stopping interruptions, with the aim of finding patterns."
