You’re acting like extraverts get good feelings and introverts get bad feelings via simple contact with other people. It isn’t like that at all.
Extraverts get energized by external excitement and get bored or listless in the absence of it.
Introverts get energized by internal excitement, and get worn out when it gets blocked out for prolonged periods via attention-sapping external stimulation.
A meeting isn’t going to hurt introverts, any more than reading a book would hurt extraverts. Introverts also derive benefits from making connections with others, even if they do not necessarily enjoy the initial stages of social activity involved in forging those connections. It’s not like the introverts are being dragged into nightclubs or anything.
I agree with you about the diffusion of accountability thing though...that happens all the time and it is beyond irritating
