Regarding the thing about handwritten words carrying more weight than spoken or typed ones, I was reminded of when I read The Tale of Genji during military service.
You see, in the book there were many extended descriptions of the thank-you letters that men sent the girls the morning after, going on at length about the paper the ink the calligraphy etc., and zero words were spent on how the night encounter actually was.
Unless it was all an extended metaphor and the actual meaning was "those guys sure knew how to use their brush, wink wink", but at the end of the book one was left with the distinct impression that in those times babies were made by correspondence...
