I've legitimately used whiteboards to pseudocode while discussing architecture with teammates plenty of times before. Does it compile? No. But the point is that I can more easily demonstrate the benefits of an approach with some concrete pseudocode to help grok the proposed algorithm.
As an aside, if you've never done systems design or pseudocode on a Smartboard, you're really missing out. Copy/paste, duplicating a slide, recalling earlier slides, etc. Man, that's the way to design a system with quick iteration but still no worry of losing your work.
