In the domain of the activity, the exact meaning of 'to write' is quite
clear, never mind the fact that I would still dispute copying and pasting
to be you writing, even if I might concede that you still might say
something was writing.

And I never denied it was possible to cheat with pen and paper: this is
why I've told you to show me a copy to judge whether it's authentic or
not.

I'm still waiting :)
