Why is using disposable pens still common practice? (lemmy.today)

Why not buy one decent pen "shell" and then just buy the plastic tube with the tip and the ink afterwards?

I know many companies use pens for marketing but still, they could apply this too and also stand up for the environment while still do marketing.

Sure, if you're a mechanic that's writing on greasy paper while standing. The same ink and delivery system make it far worse if you're actually sitting behind a desk and writing for prolonged time.
