Surely we're all seeing this on Zoom calls these days?
People sharing their desktop/app/window, then breaking out of that sharing selection to bring something else up, while they're talking.. and searching, and things aren't working exactly as expected, so they go into rabbit-hole mode, etc...
Everyone's got a million things going on in their brains, and an audience changes things, and "presenting to an audience" is different than sharing with an audience.
I switch between my Mac and a Windows machine, between Safari and Chrome, between ctrl- and Command-, etc etc. Half the time things I'm connected to are broken (VPNs, endpoints, services...) so I find myself half-stabbing my way through little time windows during the day. And if I'm talking to someone, while trying to do something I've done 1000x before, I'm probably covering my bases by stabbing at the keyboard even more.
I do presentations a lot too, it's a totally different mode.
