Part of it comes with having to fight the friction of a carbide ball and the sticky, smeary ink of a ballpoint against the paper, whereas a fountain pen glides over the surface and acts more like a paint brush. Also the water based fountain pen inks act like a lubricant as you write. Less friction = less fatigue!
