"Saying things out loud, it somewhat forces you to think at a more organised level than in your head where it can be jumbled." Terence Tao. (Pulled from an interview video.) It's nice to know that someone about six times smarter than me looks at it the way that I do. Good comments at the post, also.

Putting it in writing has a similar effect. Maybe they’re not the same, though. It could be that speaking involves trying to frame a thought for a particular other, a present and known audience, whereas writing involves trying to frame points more broadly. There may be exceptions, like say comments composed on a blog with a known audience.
