If after “resolving” something you can’t actually write down what was accomplished, nothing was resolved.
I’ve had a lot of 1on1s meant to “get us all on the same page” where a boss just blithers and blathers for an hour without communicating anything. The value in writing is working through the mistakes your brain makes during communication. Going to talking just makes it easier to ignore errors.

It's possible to "resolve" something / determine what to do next without writing anything down. Often the ideal outcome is simply an agreement that Person X will move forward with approach Y.
