Exams shouldn’t probably be used for learning new information and typing is a lot more efficient and allows editing and revising so there are advantages to that.

Rote memorisation has been the standard technique probably for way longer that anything else so I’m not sure that every innovation is inherently inferior to what we had before

Handwriting is still “new information” by the time you are in university? How do you feel about reading when text to speech and LLM summarization are so advanced now?

No wonder some people are so easy to replace with an LLM.
