I once stuttered through a stuttering meetup and read the closing words at the end literally perfectly. The ability to look ahead visually just feels different from thinking ahead (my thoughts are typically too quick for words anyway) and allows more effort to be spent on finding the correct rhythm and timing to speak fluently. It's similar to the difference between conversational speech and reading from a teleprompter.
