Social exposure is a broad definition that doesn't necessarily require talking to someone. Obviously having a conversation with someone is more of a social interaction than sitting quietly in a room with your peers or walking past another person, but any amount of being around people is still more social exposure than being isolated alone in a room. It's the same reason that coding alone in a private office is different than coding quietly in an open office: Being around people is social exposure.
