It's about respect for the other person, as I see it. You wouldn't be a little miffed if your wife of 10 years sent you a "k thx bai (link to divorce papers)" instead of talking in person?

Context is everything. Yeah, your wife of 10 years deserves the face to face, more than once. A dude I dated for a few months that showed no emotional intelligence specifically told me he'd prefer a text. I obliged when I realized it wasn't going anywhere and I didn't want to keep up a casual relationship. He then asked to talk in person, though, and I again obliged.

I would fetch my divorce attorney shovel.
