Yeah, I was starting to think that as I was composing my rant. I don't want the dancers to not have fun but at the same time each needs to focus (a) on the call at hand along with any cuing the caller may offer, (b) on one's own position & role in the square, and (c) to a lesser degree on the other folks in the square.
Very experienced dancers may need only a fraction of their overall attention span to keep up with the square but newbies in a lesson or workshop should be fully focused.
