And the part that is most interesting is when we take the task through explicit reasoning then back out to the unconscious. Because working memory just plain sucks.
Yes, explicitly developed skills are at their best when practice makes them automatic and not requiring conscious attention. But they would be different processes from the original ones, and they can be better. This is also a major topic of Eliezer's last post (which prompted me to write this one).
It certainly overlaps.
