Yes, men interrupt each other frequently for efficiency, and (if we like each other) we constantly insult or "mess with" each other, as an evolved system of decision checks within a team.
But we're no longer on single gender hunting teams or war parties. I think it's good that life has gotten so easy that progress today means dealing with feelings related issues as a society.

(I believe you are right about this as I recall some studies) 3) Should we optimize for dealing with feelings rather than efficiency? For example: Will the decreased efficiency result in more lost lives due to a delayed cure for cancer or heart disease?
