Roleplay for writing
The hardest scenes to write are the ones where you are not sure the character would really say it. Rehearsal solves that: put the character in the room, ask the hostile question, and hear what comes back — in their voice, from their motives, with their memory of the plot.
Nothing typed in a rehearsal lands in the manuscript. The output is understanding, and the transcript is there when you want to mine it for dialogue.
