Op- acceptable and unacceptable are very subjective terms. It can vary from person to person. Example - If you’re in a telephonic interview and post interview you get a chance to hear the conversation because of some tech glitch, most of the people will choose to hang on and listen what the interviewer says about them. It is acceptable from interviewee’s standpoint but not from the interviewer’s.

I hang out of my own protection. I don’t want to hear something not intended for myself but I don’t think it’s a big deal.....

If the partner wants to listen, let him. excuse yourself (bio break, whatever). come back after 10 min.. by that time the partner would have hung up probably. this way you won't be party to anything you don't want to be a part of

No big deal.. Ignore!! Don’t be like that annoying classmate who keeps complaining against the others to the teacher.
However, just make sure not to misuse the information that you hear.. Just listen and ignore. Nothing wrong with that.

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
