This is probably a good call. In the debate with Biden, Trump gish galloped through every question without ever actually answering any questions. By the time Biden got to speak, there were ten or fifteen lies to respond to. Even Harris could be overwhelmed by the magnitude of that. She needs to be able to interrupt Trump as he lies as well as to point out that he didn’t answer the question he was asked.
That would only work if she actually answers the questions she’s asked, too. My big gripe with Harris in her VP debates and interviews was that she dodged every question that wasn’t in her talking points.
Maybe she can answer directly now that she’s not deferring to the president. Maybe not.
However, she can still do the “disappointed mom if a petulant child” shtick without calling or for question evasion anyway. They are not linked.

If she laughs at him at all he will probably lose his shit. The Trump ticket cannot handle laughter.
