If I take the time to organize my thoughts and present them, I want the person to whom I'm presenting them to attempt to respond.

If I failed to make myself clear, at a minimum, presenting me with a list of things needing clarification is helpful for me to take the time to prepare.

"Hop on a call" is to me almost always shorthand for "I don't respect the issue enough to attempt to organize my thoughts ahead of time, but I'll ramble about it and let you pick my brain." Or in the most malicious cases, the other party is seeking plausible deniability.

In my experience it's not that way 100% of the time, but it's damn close.
