Is there now finally a tool to automatically check for errors while rewriting equations?

The tools exist, like online symbolical integral calculators, limit calculators, algebraic equation solvers,etc.

not him but you might as well just buy a tablet since you're paying that much for the pen anyway and the page refills+ink will add up
a tablet with a 6000-8000mah battery will last several days if you're just doing note taking, and around 2 days if you're surfing the net or watching movies, and you can turn it into a phone if it has a simcard with a dialer app

I have an ipad pro and an apple pencil and tried to take notes on it for 2 months. turns out that taking notes on an ipad really fucked with my brain. I was always extremely confused and mind fogged, and took me a while to realize that his was the cause. I thought it was normal since I had just started university. Nope. Another friend of mine still uses his ipad to take notes and doesn't have any problem. For me it's much better to just write a couple of things on a piece of paper, something that has a physical location in space, or not writing anything at all and just follow the lecture. So, to answer to your question, it's not for everyone.

writing on these never, ever feels comfortable.

it probably is super useful and convenient though. one object to work on your group projects or assignments, take seemingly infinite notes with automatic backup, recording lectures... and also your personal x86 computer. the keyboard and trackpad feels extremely good too, it's very impressive, but writing on it never feels as good as paper and pencil, something that is less than $10 even if you buy a good mechanical pencil, and it's completely proprietary and probably degrades quickly.

The way I see it, it also replaces a laptop if you have one so the investment is a bit more justified. I didn't have a laptop, only desktop, so I mostly took paper notes (except in law class where I just had my friend send me his typed notes, guy gave out info faster than I could write by hand, the typing noises in that class were hilarious).

But a guy at work uses a tablet as his log book, the pen technology (aka responsiveness, resolution/accuracy) seems to have come a long way even in the last 5 years or so. I'm thinking of getting one when I start my new job which seems like it will benefit from better note taking/logging.

You're conflating being a sub-par student with a sub-4.0 brainlet. They're actually in opposition. Suppose as you imply that you're smart enough to both take notes and not fall behind with coursework. Then your coursework is too easy or there's not enough of it, so you're not living up to your full potential.
