Of course not. My point is just that online casual speech mimics in-person speech in a way that pre-internet written communication didn’t. Online we often write more like we speak, and emoji are there to replace facial expressions which are absent otherwise. In the past, written communication was slower and/or more formal so more care could be put into using words alone, but no one’s spending hours sentence-crafting in an online chat room.

Humans absolutely have not been having instantaneous casual conversations through text for thousands of years though. The needs of written communication have changed since the internet.
