Pen and Paper Note-Taking

How is it better than taking a (paper) notebook and pen?

why not use just a pen and a notebook then :) ?

Honestly, I've gone back to paper and pen. It's not searchable, it's not sharable, and it's not elegant.It is private, it is secure, it is unobtrusive.My preference is Field Notes https://fieldnotesbrand.com/ and a quick drying gel pen https:&
