But it forces you to think and then write, instead of the other way around, by adding more cost to mistakes. As foe handwriting there have been studies that showed that handwritten notes are better memorized rhan computer-written ones.

I don't care that I look weird, but I still take a notebook (as in a physical notebook) to meetings and take notes by hand.

With rare exceptions, I never read those notes. But by writing them, I remember it, so I don't need to. Whenever I've experimented with taking notes on the computer, I can't remember any of it.
