insisting on this is a great way to not have friends, mr GM

I also love the idea of just glaring in silent fury, refusing to help as one of my players struggles to remember my made-up things

Yeah, also doesn't help that the time between play sessions can be quite awhile. Weekly at best, monthly more likely, or sometimes a lot longer.

Also even in real time games last months or years, and I'l forget a name or lose a piece of paper more easily than my character will lose his magic sword.

As usual with TTRPG advice that purports to reinforce "realism," the results of applying it are unrealistic.

That being said it does make me wonder if there's a non-vindictive and narratively interesting way to model PCs forgetting simple but important stuff. That does happen to people and stories do sometimes use it to drive conflict in good ways.

Right? Yes of course we're going to talk out of character during combat? Because our characters have just spent months working together that we went over in a 3-minute montage. Our characters have communications that we don't and they have tactics set up they had months to do it

I usually don't get mad about people's D&D takes but Jesus f*** this is some 1980s Gary gygax s*** with smaller words

My experience with that style of GM is that they react poorly when I build a character for whom my personal inability to take extensive notes or recall Important Fake Names and stuff won't be a significant impediment.

My D&Ders here have been doing a weekly meeting (digitally), pursuing the same campaign since JUNE. It's insanely complicated at this point...there's no way everyone could remember everything without needing a reminder now and then. Just let people enjoy things!
