Not true - the vast majority of people you meet, you will not end up connecting with meaningfully. On top of that, you’re risking you and the other party’s social comfort. I’ve already had plenty of cases of people I find obnoxious and unbearable try to force themselves into my social spaces, and I would not wish that on anyone else, nor would I want to be that person.
If people give off the right vibe or are maybe talking about the right thing when I pass by, I might chime in momentarily, but I’m not bothering strangers when there’s no indication of a connection.
