I think it's a mistake to assume that the ability to draw characters with a stylus is the same as being able to write--that is, to express oneself using using visual or tactile symbols that represent thoughts. I have an acquaintance who can neither speak nor hold a pen, but has written some of the most moving and thought-provoking things I have ever read. It's as irritating as people who claim that reading and writing braille isn't really reading or writing.
