I think we are having a misunderstanding based on semantics. It is impossible for someone without a stutter to stutter. They may be disfluent. They may be extraordinarily disfluent. However the disfluencies of typical speakers are not stuttered disfluencies. People who stutter have normal disfluencies just like everyone else but they also have stuttered disfluencies.
