That's a different style of communicating. Think of it as something closer to a conversation, where you generally don't take long pauses
But we aren't calling, we are texting. And text has the ability to delete and change mistakes. So make use of it.
I mean, sure, but I'm also not gonna be spending 5 minutes composing a mega-message, and I don't expect the other person to do so either
I don't think he was talking about spending 5 minutes on a message, just that it's not actually going to take you much longer to send what you want to say in a single message rather than 3 separate messages with one of them being a correction. So it wouldn't make much of a difference to the sender, but it's much nicer for the receiver.
To be fair, I might be thinking of something else than you
that's quite possible, yes
