Yes indeed, and this law might also be known as talking at cross purposes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapists have long proposed Active Listening as a partial solution, but of course this only mitigates the problem, which can be deeply rooted, such as with degrees of Autism (Asperger's). And it is very difficult to teach a person to accurately detect non verbals if it doesn't already come naturally to them.

Still, I like the presentation of the issue as a law since it feels more manageable that way.
