Probably just personal preference actually, I don't even end up using the eraser on a pencil. But it seems lighter, less pressure needs to be applied to write with it. Similar to why people that type a lot prefer a mechanical keyboard? The words just come out a lot easier, in my experience.
Ah, I see. For me, I like using gel pens for a similar reason. They just sort of glide. I don't care about erasing. I'd rather strike something out than lose my train of thought rubbing something out or using liquid paper.
I'm a lefty, so pencils tend to be extra smudgy. I don't use erasable ink for the same reason. Sometimes that gets too much like self-censorship.
