Do Fountain Pens really help you learn?

Depending on your slant or I suppose your age, and if you're reading this then you're probably a little bit bias as you'll clearly be a lover of the fountain pen, but humour me for a while as we pose the questions, Do Fountain Pens Help you Learn?

Some say...

It helps to develop fine motor skills and encourages a more relaxed and fluent hand writing style. It is also possible to write much faster with a fountain pen because it needs less pressure than a pencil or a ballpoint pen. However it takes a long time to learn it and if teachers try to hurry the process it can become a big frustration for a child. 

So if using a fountain pen encourages better handwriting in general, what does that mean?

I suppose it does help if you can read your own handwriting...

More thoughts on this soon...
