Iroh actually added an interesting perspective that I had failed to take into account: Adding the thought for comical reasons.
Sometimes, that can totally work! I've been in several situations where the roleplay was rather funny, and where the adition of the character's thought just made it even more hillarious. So yeah, I can see a use for it now and then.
But as I already said, I don't believe in a right or wrong way to roleplay. Writing my character's thoughts is (usually) not for me, but that doesn't mean I won't roleplay with people who do it, or can't see the reason for doing it.
