Yes.
If you don't want me taking up your time, don't answer your phone. See how that works?
To be clear, most people that use this tactic does not call people either, it is a waste of my time to call you. I'll send you an email.
If you are my boss, I owe you my time. For that person I pick up.
Otherwise you can send me an email.

I simply cannot do that. Judges, among others, do not care about such things.
