You're assuming that most of the writing is done on computers - but depending on the discipline - it isn't : computers aren't nowhere nearly good enough to compete with paper / chalk (/ even whiteboard !) when it comes to mathematics-heavy domains.
- Mikeb85 5y agoPure maths is a pretty small niche. The vast majority of while collar work, university students, etc..., definitely type and use computers constantly.
- BlueTemplar 5y agoI meant most STEM students plus some others (economics). While we do use computers constantly, it's not comparable to how much more is directly written / drawn on paper. (Well, pre-Covid at least.)
