The judge reads the jury instructions to the jury, and then the attorneys make their closing arguments. The closing arguments let each attorney tell the jury what they think the evidence proves and why their client should win.
The jury should not be determining whether the underlying law is right, or justifiable, or in the public interest (that is for the legislature and constitutional court cases). By not having written instructions, it reduces the ability of the jury to parse through the language and come up with their own interpretation.
The concern about allowing juror questions in criminal cases is that the burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt is on the prosecution and it can lose simply by failing to meet that burden of proof.
A jury instruction is given by the judge to the jury to explain what is happening in the court, to explain the points of law relevant to the case, to explain certain aspects of the evidence presented and to assist the jurors in understanding their duties in reaching a verdict.
Model, standard, and pattern instructions are not binding, so a trial court may modify them as necessary to fit the circumstances of the case. A court will often reject parties proposed jury instructions if there are model instructions available on the topic, in an effort to avoid bias or manipulation.

Arguments against note taking are that (1) the best note-taker may dominate jury deliberations; (2) jurors, not having an overview of the case, may include in their notes interesting sidelights and ignore important but boring facts; (3) dishonest jurors might falsify notes; (4) note taking draws the jurors attention
The general rule is not to discuss the case with anyone, including other jurors, prior to deliberations. That way, each juror makes a completely independent evaluation of the evidence and goes into deliberations without being influenced by others.
The court found that the distribution of written instructions to the jury is not expressly authorized by law, and error in such submissions cannot be deemed harmless, meaning that providing the instructions would result in a conviction being overturned.
