i have defended phone calls as the ultimate way to get something done and i will continue to do so
Give me the paper trail that comes with an email conversation over a phone call any day.
Or most days at least. Some things are just easier to discuss by voice. But not many.
You should see the documentation we get from the orderer of our current project, we basically have to call two meetings a day just to decipher it
Sometimes you need back and forth which over email can take days. You can't talk while looking at your calendar? Guess what, you say "give me 30 seconds to open my calendar". Or 60. However much you need. People gaslight or bullshit? You follow up the call with an email "as we discussed on the phone, x y and z, and we agreed not to do a b nor c". If someone can't communicate over phone, they just can't communicate.
Then you don't do what discussed or escalate to a manager. Not that this has ever happened to me in my life, people are not cartoon villains.
I don't have a reason to want to communicate with you in particular, have a record of our interaction or any specific outcome.
Empty internet theory
Being able to communicate one form doesn't impede others. Reading comprehension should help.
I don't.
Not what I said. You are bad at this, huh?
