Okay, I'll type out the section on "Prescriptive Applications of [Task Analysis]" from page 143 of Theory of Instruction and the accompanying figures tomorrow (been working on less than four hours a night of sleep for the past three days, so I'ma keep this short right now).

And the two examples of probed items are both correlated-features concepts.
But yeah, if you could possibly find the time to check the online catalogs of any university libraries near you to see if they have the book... because if you could easily get your hands on a copy, it wouldn't be too hard to just try skimming the section and chapter summaries.
I'll also ask in the DI community for advice on good examples of places in programs that teach cognitive routines, and ask if they can give me the reference to the experimental evidence on the 1-20 vs 1-99 thing, and so on.
