I think it would be more detrimental to have somebody in your ear feeding you lines as you're trying to answer a question than if they just shut up and let you try to get your thoughts together. There are people, for instance, news anchors, who are kind of used to that, but most people aren't. Most people can't talk and listen at the same time.
