I agree here. When I take notes more formally in a structured way, I often feel like there isn't a good place to store something. Or I think something is so scrappy that it doesn't "deserve" to be a note in a carefully curated store, so I don't write it down.

When taking daily notes... I can just literally fire anything into the note and forget about it.

If it's something I'm actively working on, it'll be in a note from a couple of days back.

If it's something more historic, it can sit gathering dust and I never need to worry about it and maybe if I need something I can just search over the notes files.
