Overheard a foreman say he still pencils everything in first

Guy next to me at lunch said he drafts everything by hand before touching CAD. Told me it catches 90% of his layout mistakes before they hit the screen. Has anyone else gone back to paper for rough drafts?

Wait, people actually still do that? That's wild, sounds like something out of the 80s.

There's something to that old-school habit. Kind of like how people who hand-write grocery lists actually waste less food - it forces your brain to slow down and think before you do the thing.
