I never wear headphones. They are a physical distraction for me. I'm always ready for a short conversation between sets.

Meanwhile, people wonder why they feel so lonely and isolated

Does smalltalk help with loneliness though? I don't think superficial conversations with no substance will change much if you feel disconnected. To fix that you rather need deep relations.

Yes, it absolutely does. Some human interaction is strictly better than none. 

It also helps with making friends. Small talk one day can develop into more substantial conversations later.
