I tend to agree this should be an exp rather than an int, per the arguments from 2018.

I'm comfortable with either or both.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interjection
"In linguistics, an interjection is a word or expression that occurs as an utterance on its own and expresses a spontaneous feeling 
or reaction.[1][2] The category is quite heterogeneous, and includes such things as exclamations (ouch!, wow!), curses (damn!), 
greetings (hey, bye), response particles (okay, oh!, m-hm, huh?), and hesitation markers (uh, er, um). "
It might be a "kandoushi" in Japanese but then that would only prove that a "kandoushi" isn't the exact equivalent of "interjection" 
in English.

I really don't think this is an 
interjection, at least not as I understand 
the term.
