> This is why I'm skeptical of the whole "writing forces you to be honest because it means you have to actually think things through well enough to put them into words that can be put into coherent sentences" If you're making an earnest effort to think truthful thoughts, then trying to put your thoughts into writing is genuinely helpful.
