But those 5 people who interrupted you are no longer blocked. If they had to schedule a call with you tomorrow or the next day then the overall productivity of the team could very well drop.
Companies care less about your individual productivity and more about the productivity of the entire organization.

If you don't have anything else you could be doing for that whole hour you probably aren't that busy anyway, in which case waiting won't hurt you too much.
