Most writing is about giving people the information they want or need while respecting their time. In that sense, I find technical writing to be very close to UX design. If you want to write well, you must know your audience's needs and struggles. This is always left out of style guides, yet it's a core element of good writing. Clear writing is pointless if it clarifies the wrong things. It does not just require good writing skills, but also empathy and understanding.
