Many situations, prefer text to voice. Text: Easier record keeping, manipulation, search, editing, ....

With some irony, the Hacker News user interface is essentially all just simple text.

A theme in current computer design seems to be: Assume the user doesn't use a text editor and, instead, needs an 'app' for every computer interaction. Like cars for people who can't drive, and a car app for each use of the car -- find a new BBQ restaurant, need a new car app.

Sorry, Silicon Valley, with text anyone who used a typewriter or pocket calculator can do more and have fewer apps and more flexibility, versatility, generality.
