Lojban has formalized even hesitation, for god's sake,
so why couldn't it formalize conversations?

If we didn't have {i}, this would be a description of Lojban:

   Each person says one "sentence".  Each "sentence" is
   fed to the parser, which doesn't care about whether any
   other "sentences" are being said, in what order, etc.
   Pragmatics dictate that the sentences form a "conversation",
   and the "conversation" may even be divided into "texts", which
   are sequences of sentences from one speaker that together
   communicate a coherent "message".

Et cetera.
