When speaking, a person has the liberty to use tonality and body language to convey exactly what he wants to. But the same is not true when it comes to the writing; while writing a person has to put together what he would otherwise convey through his tonality and body language into his writing and that may not be the easiest task to accomplish. Hence it is then again up to the editor to make sense of what the writer had in mind and convey that to the intended audience.
