This take is honestly bewildering to me. What do you mean “for no reason”? You learn it to write quickly and legibly. What other option is there? Writing in block letters like a kindergartener?? inb4 “bUt eVeRyThInG iS dIgItAl nOw”. I’m a programmer, about as digital as you can get, and even I whip out the pen and paper for mindmapping and notetaking.
I’m also a programmer, almost all of my note taking is now digital. I have a small scratchpad when thinking things out tactilely, but that needs to be legible to only me for all of an hour, and often is just a few unconnected words

I was told I needed it to communicate and get a job. None of those were true. And I hated the process of learning it.
To be fair, no one can see the future, so there was no way that my teachers could know.
Sometimes life is just shit.
