A system of writing can be used for any language. (Have you ever wondered why English, a Germanic language, or Vietnamese, an Austroasiatic language, use a writing system based on the Latin alphabet?) Any language that doesn’t use a system of writing can use a system of writing. It’s not like it’s some sort of existential impossibility.

As you say, any language can use a system of writing, so if one doesn't, it's not because its users can't write, but because they don't want to write. Writing is literal stone-age technology, after all.
