I think a lot of these differences have to do with most Trap fields having voice-activated throwers. You’ll learn to ‘save’ all the comments until after the round.
It’s been years since I’ve shot Skeet, but I don’t even recall seeing microphones at each station.

Trap is pretty easy to learn but hard to master. Usually not much talking going on during the relay. Shoot 5 shots in turn and move one station to the right. Some serious shooters that will look down their noses at you if you are not shooting a trap gun. Heaven forbid if you don't have a shell catcher on your semi.
Skeet is more social, a squad of 5 shooters moving around as a group 2-4 shots at each station. After a couple rounds the routine is easy to catch onto. Usually some friendly banter going on. Shoot what you have, O/U, semi, pump, SxS.
Sporting Clays is like playing golf with a shotgun. Can be serious or more laid back depending on the squad you shoot with.
Skeet is my favorite, followed by Sporting Clays.
