Disclaimer: I'm not OP and I haven't read the full post yet.

But the quote above says "If..." and then makes a statement that isn't true and then having a conclusion based on that false premise. I can tell you it isn't true because I can recall countless times in the last few months alone where writing down my ideas has resulted in a muddier thought; lost ideas while writing them down; confusing me and missing some parts; it does not "always make them more precise and more complete". So the rest of the statement is just silly.

Sure, sometimes writing down ideas helps clear things up. Most times even. But always?! Definitely not.
