Two reasons to blog while you're learning something:
1. When one person teaches, two people learn.
2. Writing things down helps sharpen your own understanding of that topic.
3. (Bonus) You may think nobody would find it useful because there are already so many articles out there about X or Y, but just think about how many times you've been helped by a blog post or tip from some little no-name blog. You may not think of yourself as an expert but there are certainly people out there who know even less than you, who may find your posts helpful.
Your points, at least in my experience, are spot on. I would include one additional bonus: i find i "hm" and "um" less, and generally communicate clearer since writing became a regular practice of mine.
