Glancing over the examples, I don't see anything that's particularly unique to us developers. Support, marketing, sales, the bosses, our customers, they could all improve their communication in the ways presented here.

For me, learning how to construct simple proofs during my early math classes at uni really helped my writing. It made me pay a lot more attention to what I'm writing, like ensuring arguments are laid out in a more logical manner and that references are clear.

Not saying I'm exceptionally good at it. But given that language was by far my weakest topic at school until then, I've since helped both my SO and my sister gain over a full grade point increase in college on hand-ins and similar, just by looking over what they've written and doing some minor tweaks like reordering sentences to ensure logical consistency in their arguments.
