Your comment, while long, did not respond to the cited article.
The paper's abstract cites specific benefits to using handwritten notes, including:
* laptop note takers’ tendency to transcribe lectures verbatim rather than processing information and reframing it in their own words is detrimental to learning.
* even when laptops are used solely to take notes, they may still be impairing learning because their use results in shallower processing.
It sounds like the study indicates that processing by hand is different from taking notes on a computer.
To rebut the study, you should address those points, rather than just talk about advantages you have perceived to using laptops.
