I had this reaction as well. Can’t speak for OP, but one issue with this is that audio is harder to look back at than writing; harder to skim when you’re just looking for that one thing you think was said but you want to be sure. One solution here would be transcription, which could probably be automated because it wouldn’t have to be perfect, just good enough to be able to skim to the part of the audio you’re looking for.
