interleaving the spokes- what good does it actually do?

Even on a sports tourer with Conti TT, I find non-woven lacing mushy
compared to woven lacing: less sharpness at turn in over bumps,
slowness in changing direction ? Sinusodial rim wobbling?

so if that's the case, and it's only really friction between the two
spokes that could be having this effect, why would not locking the two
spokes with tying & soldering not have /more/ effect?

weaving the last crossing is more aerodynamic, less likely to trap
squirrels.
while the shorter spoke question is open but buried, comparison to
building engineering is unequal with curve bracing from the rim.
but 4x spokes are braced by the mate. Is "braced" an acceptable
engineering term ?
?
