I agree, but don't think it has anything to do with the versatility of paper. Writing on all kinds of things will persist. I'm even thinking about unusual mediums like writing on a piece of tape as a label, writing measurements on a piece of wood you're going to cut, whiteboards, etc.

While most of us may be done with writing long prose on paper, writing in general isn't likely to go away.

Your point on writing is true too, but versatility is an important aspect of paper. Packaging for example. Gift wrapping. Arts and crafts. Things like post it notes, allowing you to physically add a note to something.
