Old Man Shouts At Cloud
Not really, just because something is old doesn't mean its bad. We dont want to lose handwriting as a society when all of our devices are dumb terminals linked to bezosnet and youre not allowed to type anything bad about Dear Leader.
We can stand to lose cursive, as long as it's readable, then any style of handwriting works.
But anyhow my point is that the other guy is making shit up to complain about and nobody "needs a device in order to know how to do handwriting" other than literally those incapable due to physical disabilities (e.g. nerve damage)
It's clearly you kids are the problem these days. Sure I may have forgotten how to write certain archaic kanji and their radicals without the aid of a device but I can still write the other 20k characters perfectly while the youths can barely make do with only 5k.
