Why This Has Friction
A notes app is frictionless. You type, it saves, it syncs. You never have to commit because you can always edit later. Paper doesn't work like that. When you write by hand, you slow down. You process more deeply. You can't copy-paste your way through a thought — you have to actually think it through. The permanence of ink creates accountability. The slowness creates depth.
