I've found the opposite. Typing feels much more "deliberate", and of course you can hit backspace but you can't un-speak a word. With prompting, I've found that, in general, speaking leads to lower-quality results than typing.

Not everyone. I, at least, definitely overthink what I type, and while I end up with nice-ish sentences in my prompts it takes a lot longer than a train of thought that the AI parses correctly most of the time anyway.
It sounds autistic, but writing and reading allow you to be much more precise, careful, and deliberate with your words and helps reduce impulsive outbursts.
This has worked really well for us, as crazy as it sounds.
I've done this myself with my wife and I.
> It sounds autistic
Well, I'm autistic, and she has a very high traumatic intelligence. She reads my body language, expressions, movements more than what I say, and those are very easy to misinterpret or overinterpret. And she says things... but it's not actually what she means. By us writing/typing things out, we're able to communicate without stray signals creating noise.
I find the opposite when dictating to a phone - it feels like speaking requires an enormous amount of effort compared to typing.
Quite possibly because I spend all day typing and am a touch typer.
I suspect this has to do with the nature of the work you're doing; I dunno, just count me firmly in the camp of people who only rarely feel like I can express a thought sufficiently for coding agents with their voice.
I think a good habit is: Try to make the agent fail at least once a week with a too ambitious request. This got surprisingly hard lately :)
