I do think that digital handwriting is the best of both worlds. Writing on glass is a little awkward by can be quickly adapted too, and it has the same benefits of visualization, slower pace and intentional space planning/organization, all of which help memorization.
I love this! I'm also a paper and pencil guy. Recently I got the new iPad Air and love using it for note taking and brainstorming with the Apple Pencil.
I think one thing your article is missing, and is worth investigating further, is (and this is a hypothesis) when you have a paper and pencil (versus typing away at a keyboard + mouse) you're more likely to draw and doodle out your thought process. Drawing, at least for me, is very relaxing and also helps capture things much more profoundly than typed letters. It's like they say - a picture is worth a thousand words. Not to mention people remember images far better than words.
As for the writing on glass problem, and yes, it is a problem and takes some getting used to, there are screen protectors you can put on that make it feel (and sound!) just like writing on paper. reMarkable2 also solves for this with the texture of their screen (though I personally haven't tried it).
I also wrote about the preference of using handwriting for daily planner a little while ago: https://medium.com/super-simple-draw/get-productive-with-super-simple-draw-daily-planner-3f51101d7c1e

Is the Rocketbook Fusion review link correct? I get directed to “Graduate College With EXCELLENT Credit” which seems unrelated
Remarkable2 is the best gadget for me to replace pen and paper.
