in a conversation, phone calls allow you to transmit additional information through intonation. video calls allow you to transmit even more information through facial expressions and body language

in person >>> video conference > phone > text

for extremely dense information communications that don't require a lot of back and forth, email is the superior choice, because you then have a record and people won't have to re-read. for things where you just need to shoot info out, text is okay

there's a reason why it's so convenient in an office setting to be able to walk over to someone's desk

Exactly. Phone calls are also useful in discussing specifics, since you can stop the other person if there's a part that needs more clarification. With emails, I've frequently run into issues with someone being too vague or glossing over important details.
