      When you write you accumulate graphite dust or ink onto your hand. Even if you lift your hand between words, the movement of your hand resting on your previous letters makes it happen.

        Doesn’t that turn the point of that panel null though? I thought that the point was that you get your hand dirty because, when writing from left to right with your left hand, you’re more likely to stomp over what you’ve already written.
