In my view, this is backwards.
A public (to the team) single source of truth is the imperative. You want to require it, because having a canonical, asynchronous channel where all decisions must be discussed before they are finalized allows for efficient remote collaboration!
Good writing will often but not always follow as a consequence of establishing that canonical asynchronous channel, as team members strive to operate effectively within it — but the writing is only a means to an end.
