Weirdly enough, I went through school before then and learned cursive and I only use it on receipts and the occasional bank check. It has little to do with cursive being taught and more to do with cursive, and handwriting in general, being irrelevant.

You're probably right, besides aesthetic value, writing on paper has little utility left
Faster and with better retentIon when taking notes in meetings (or classes).
Same here! And I used a typewriter for my essays at university. These days if I scribble things down its just a scrawl (not really printing or cursive to be honest).
