Really resonating with your insights about learning through immersion. In my experience implementing mentorship programs, I've observed exactly what you describe - the most powerful learning happens in those unplanned moments of watching how experienced leaders think and operate. One pattern I've noticed is that successful programs often create intentional spaces for these 'spontaneous' interactions to occur, even in virtual environments. It's about designing the right conditions for natural learning to emerge, rather than trying to script every interaction.
