What do most people write on (and yes, I know
people mostly write on paper)
As a guitar player primarily, I write most on that
instrument, in a variety of tunings, but I find it
sometimes limiting and despite being a thoroughly
awful piano player I'm trying to focus on that
instrument more and more.
Does prog lend itself to composition more on
keyboards or guitar?

F**ck it, change the topic...

So.... do you like to write on guitar, or on the back of a semi-naked
nubile 19-year-old girl with an ink fetish?

That's a good question.

I've often tried to question that myself. Though some would argue that prog wouldn't necessarily be prog (specially symphonic prog rock) without the keyboards and/or organ.

Though compositionally, personally, I'd find it easier to compose with the piano rather than figures it out on the guitar. This is possibly because I was more of a piano player before I got into guitar, and still sort of am.

Perhaps the complexity of prog music is easier to capture on piano because the keys are so easily accessible. So I'd say keyboards

Do I like to write on guitar? No it's too pretty and precious to write on; on the other hand the semi-naked nuble girl...

creating music exclusively with a guitar is extremely limiting…at least for me.
