You can't edit the carvings on it after it's dried.
It could fall and crack.
Someone could steal it when you're leaving it out to dry.
Clay tablets could take up too much space. They also take some time to create.
But they do last for a very, very long time.

You can't communicate to people who are far away from you . Most people take time to learn to write down . It doesn't last long to a term of a day.
