Typewriter operation is on the same order of simplicity as typing on a computer and operating a printer.

Typewriter acquisition is about an hour of time and $50.

Admittedly, I've owned a typewriter for longer than I've owned a conputer. I put it down in favor of WP5.1, but picked it back up a few years ago.

The advantage over pen and paper, for me, is speed and legibility.
