I have a good hand and enjoy writing with the gel 0.5. Cursive was drilled into me as a child.

I will still take notes and write my thoughts out on paper. It somehow manages to provide me focus and shut out distractions. It’s also a space I can do a lot of free form thinking and tie things together.

Assists shouldn’t be given at an early age. I believe they are counter productive.

Another example. We never used calculators till 11th grade. All calculations had to be done by hand. I can still quickly approximate to know if numbers are in the ballpark.
