he's missing the point Firstly, I don't write to think. Its too fucking slow. having had shit hand writing, I've never used the written word as a medium for working stuff out. I suspect a sizeable minority of people don't write to think. However, When I do write, the words I use are deliberate and compact. This is because writing is laborious and slow. The real risk is the death of nuance. At a gross scale the example is this: "Forgive me father for I have sinned" is logically the same as "Sorry daddy I have been bad". However the nuance is fucking miles apart. Unless you are good at proofreading (spoiler, its a skill and is never taught properly) you are going to have a bad time.
