It seems learning follows the pattern more strongly than rubik’s cube-solving does. People (generally) don’t practice the same solution to a problem over and over again to get faster at it; they tend to learn more general methods that include the specific problem. Idea is only nebulous, need to think it over more.

Definitely. And when it comes to the Rubik’s cube I personally tackled it as a learning problem more than a practical skill—so closer to how Eliezer used it in the example. I learned how to solve the cube in general then moved on. I saved my competitive skill acquisition for martial arts and laser tag. :)
