Re (1): I am a developer. I do several different things a day. It's an ideal moment, do do 1 short thing in between 2 different long tasks. It's a nice distraction, a time to empty your head. So, unless you're spending your whole day on one single huge feature all day, there are plenty of opportunities for short breaks. But I agree that having interruptions at random times may be counterproductive.
