    it’s the same situation with writing cursive. use it or lose it. and for the effort in using it for little to no gain, or even a detriment, why would you put forth the effort to learn such skills? especially since now a days you have to pick up ten times the skills of people in the past

      I would say its more like riding a bike, you don’t exactly forget how to do it. If you can’t you probably never could.
