I dunno about you but I often don't need to talk any louder than I need to talk to the librarian when the mic is half an inch from my mouth.

Yes, it is impossible. When two people are having a conversation, it is a constant level of sound, and it is easier for a third party to tune it out. A phone conversation, on the other hand, has only one side, with pauses. The start / stop / start nature of one side of the conversation is significantly more intrusive to the third party.
