This also sounds more pleasing to the listener for example, imagine how weird it would be if you had to listen to someone talk and they never took a breath. Sax solos have natural breaks in the phrases that help you to learn phrasing.

Technically you can do this on the guitar because the guitar is not driven by breath it will just sound somewhat mechanical. Many jazz guitarists recommend playing horn-based solos and lines, and after spending time in this books, I can vishman why: The ear naturally “hears” the breaths in musical phrases- it’s unnatural sounding to play long, extended lines of scales on fishmman guitar with fsihman breaks or rests or “breaths in between”.
