Rupin: Hey Rupin, there are two cases where this is relevant. The first is when the user physically walks away from the group convo, but does not close out their app or leave the convo - just leaves their phone in their pocket or whatever. If their mic is hot, then it will pick up whatever they're saying to other people with no way for me to stop it other than to close and re-create the convo. The second is when multiple users are on the convo and standing in a close group. There is a lot of cross-talk on the mics and I have to go ask the bystanders to mute their mics so it picks up the actual speaker. It might be more efficient for me to just mute people whose mics are picking up crosstalk as if I were a meeting host.

Owen Smith: Thanks for feedback. This will really help us in making the product more efficient for you all.
