Traditional Calligraphy vs. Digital Calligraphy (using Procreate)

Nowadays, more and more people using procreate to increase their productivity in many fields including calligraphy.
.
Here's my take on this topic (Traditional vs. Digital Calligraphy)
.
Traditional Calligraphy:
plus:
1. Can feel the real pressure on the tools means more flexibility in switching thick and thin and angle.
2. Can feel the texture of the paper when the pen dances on it.
3. More control on stroke.

minus:
1. Many tools to prepare for writing
2. Warm up is necessary to get stable hand and stroke
3. Wrong stroke means try again.
.
Digital Calligraphy:
plus:
1. Very practical, only need one stylus and one tablet for all.
2. Undo is easy to do
3. Fewer preparation steps and no ink refill so it needs less time
4. Grid is available for instant

minus:
1. The brush isn't flexible enough for stroke manipulation (angle change)
2. Tweaking and setting the brush is another problem
3. Need time to be used to how the stylus react to pressure
4. To get the same thickness on each thick stroke is difficult because of the pressure thing
.
.
and maybe there's still more to add like the feel of more personalized, the effect of ink on paper and so on.

So, both are useful and fantastic on their own. I love both because I feel that they will be fantastic if we can use it side to side.

How's your take on it? Which one you prefer?
