Nine out of 10 people thought colleagues who answered messages during face-to-face meetings were rude, while three out of 10 believed it was not only acceptable, but a sign of diligence and efficiency.

Huh? Seems to me that if only one out of 10 didn't think it was rude, then three out of 10 couldn't believe it was acceptable and even laudable.
