Give the recognition somewhere to go
An announcement can arrive after the answer and still interrupt the moment. The people watching need a chance to understand the guest’s response, not merely read the shape on the page.
That is the pause to protect with the host and venue. Its length comes from what is happening in the room. A quiet recognition and a burst of laughter do not ask for the same space.
