I type so much faster than I write by hand, that it’s actually detrimental since my writing falls too far behind my train of thought. Also have to concentrate more on writing vs. typing , which means in a note-taking context I also start losing stuff and not paying enough attention because I’m trying to catch up.
Also the distraction to rearrange paragraphs or look at word count sounds totally artificial - have the discipline to just plow through the typing and revise later, and for gods sake learn to use your word processor and turn off the damn word count function.
Which is to say - nice, cute article but - do what you’re faster and more effective at.
