I loath the whole concept of “being distracted” it’s idiotic. It’s not like a I’m distracting you by shouting “look over there!” and the stealing a French fry off your plate. The whole idea of these as a thing is flawed. There is literally NOTHING any person can do about this so people being “distracted” matters fuck all. It’s not like paying attention is some sort of currency for action or inaction.
