I’ve found it’s definitely the case, though memory is neither perfect nor infinite. A couple of years ago I switched to ipad and apple pencil. The key is that the ipad indexes the handwritten text. It’s nowhere near as nice as pen and paper (and I’m no snob — mechanically it’s not great). I added a screen cover to increase friction and practiced a little. Works pretty well and I have all my notes with me.
