Normally i would disagree completely as texts have crappy input on a small screen and are meant to be fast. I have typos in mine constantly because swide input and it's obvious what the word should have been.

But yeah, an important text like this does merit at least one read through.

My texts are rubbish because, somehow, the keyboard predictions & autocorrect are worse now than 5 years ago. We have LLMs barfing out fully coherent sentences on their own, how does this even happen.

Yeah, we could have functional input but no we have to destroy our planet to summarize a one sentence email into a multi-paragraph bulleted list - it's bullshit

on android Heliboard + the swype library is ok. It's at least consistent.
