Your assumption about commercial breaks is incorrect. There are no breaks. There are never breaks in Presidential debates.

“commercial breaks”

There were breaks in the Trump/Clinton debate in 2015 as it was an issue when Hilary was late getting back to the podium during a five minute commercial break:

They may say no, but it has happened before and I do not know why they had them then. We’ll see how they handle it.
