That only works for task where you get to do a similar enough thing, enough times. This seems true for driving, but less so for most types of research.
My capacity to track information in my head varies from day to day, depending on mood, sleep, etc. I can notice a clear difference in what I can and can’t do depending on this. When I have more limited mental capacity, I can still absorb facts, but I struggle to follow complex reasoning or draw independent conclusions (e.g. if this fact is true, what does that predict about the world?).
