Text is in a sense way harder to do than images because of radical nonlocality. A word at the start of one paragraph can directly influence the meaning of a word five paragraphs away. Whereas images typically represent the real world, or at least a spatial domain, which gives you a lot of structure 'for free'. If you are drawing a human, you can make a reasonable guess where their hands go in relation to their face. If someone hands you the first half of an essay, finishing it is not trivial.
