You missunderstood, one is a psychiatrist, the other a social-something. I just say it's a thing already.

No, i don't see how paper is a neccesity in your examples. And i did work in a company for a while, creating software for phones/tablets/notebooks for exatly those usecases, optimizing workflows in industry. Especially plans can be vastly more useful in digital form, look up IFC format.

You don't see how paper would be significantly easier to use when you're on top of a ladder splicing wires?

Or how it might be preferable to a touch screen on a dirty construction site?
