It is often the case that email is too slow and painful for some conversations. Those are the times that instant messaging steps in to save the day. However, there are some times when IM fails because it can also be too slow. That's when we want voice comms. There are probably times when voice is too slow for person-to-person communication. That's just too bad right now, because voice is about the quickest way humans are capable of communicating complex ideas to one another.
That's just my intuitive feeling, mind you. It could be that drawing diagrams while speaking increases the information volume you're able to convey.
