I think about this a lot, maybe too much, I admit. My theory is that we've devalued the act of writing letters. People in business today fire emails back and forth, and they're devoid of any style, they're often close to gibberish. So when it comes time to write a meaningful letter, like a considerate rejection, people just shirk the job entirely. They don't know how to competently write a letter, so they just ghost people instead.
So because we write each other so much, they write less?
It's an interesting theory. Important notes requiring thought and tact — thank-yous, rejections, bereavement — we do less, because they're too serious and we've become so superficial and shallow.
It's probably other things too. They're unqualified, insufficiently trained, cowardly, lazy, yet also likely overburdened. They're advised not to, to avoid landmines. And there's a power imbalance too.
