While I agree with you in the abstract sense, IMO we don't yet have
enough powerful, cheap, and ubiquitous compute/display technology to
make this a universal statement in the practical sense.  From my POV,
paper just doesn't work for this, and when it comes to real
collaboration, paper often ends up as the lowest common denominator.
