The Jimmy Swaggart "staring eye-to-eye" thing and some of the others aside; that's just plain goofy; Oneness theology has pretty much always recognized that God inhabits multiple roles and does so
simultaneously.
This is how we have a voice from heaven while Jesus Christ is standing in the water at John's baptism. The fumbling human experience and interpretation might be that there were "two people talking as God(s)." It takes further experiences with the revelation of God to sort things out.
In time, I think it can be a matter of semantics that ends up dividing people of faith.
