Not covered in this article, some people simply never transitioned to new technology because they are older, unfamiliar/inclined with tech and didn't have to.
A colleague who was at a fairly known investment company told me of a senior exec whose PA left printed emails and left them on his desk. He would then write replies on the paper version and the PA would type and send them.
Nothing to do with secrecy. He was just older and never adapted to computers. I feel this logic fits occam's razor nicely rather than being over conspiratorial. It's not like you can't use email for efficiency, and do the 'lets take this offline' response when going somewhere sensitive/secretive.
