I only use my kuru toga when writing in Japanese, I normally just use a pen for english. Japanese does have significantly more strokes.
Why write, when typing is faster? Even a phone keyboard is better than a pencil.
While this is certainly the case for english, it does not apply to every language. Especially those with a lot of characters like Japanese.
You also remember stuff better when writing it down, and some people just prefer it.
It’s there. #6
Lots of people use pencils every day outside of school.
Gotta get yourself some of these
I used to use them too before I tried the kuru toga. It’s nice how cheap they are but still feel at least somewhat premium.

I think people use the sharpwriter because US standardized testing requires a #2 pencil and the sharpwriters are cheap.
If you feel they are unreliable, it may just be that you aren’t using good ones. I use 3 on a regular basis (for Japanese) and never have issues with feeding or lead breaking; I also only have to refill it every few weeks.
