I do stuff like that too, when it happens! (In general, my posts aren't long, but I take a long time to write sometimes. Native speaker failure.)

What I mean is that if I were in the middle of typing out a sentence or a post,
*immediately stops everything to reply to something else* it breaks up the thought at that's kinda jarring. I tend to separate my tells and party chat into their own tab so I can keep track of them. But I don't like the idea of cutting my post (which is already short a lot of the time) into multiple, disjointed posts for a "I saw your /tell and will get back to reading it when I can" message, if I can simply finish writing and then actually make a response.
My average post in RP is maybe 2 lines on my chatbar, compared to about the 5 is can be if maxed out. Short of a screenshot to illustrate the point. But this isn't trying to blame a newcomer, but if I've spent the last 5, maybe 10 minutes on a post trying to get -something- out, I -really- want to get it written so I can handle everything else. And I think there's likely a group of people who feel the same way.
