Interesting. I know that visualization future action works (I use it e.g. in fencing to 'plan' an attack).

It is also related to cached thoughts.

If I understand right you generalize from simple motor action to all kinds of physical or cognitive behaviors that can be represented and rehearsed succinctly, e.g. habits. Nice idea. And yes, my Anki is different but also contains things that fall into this category esp. in the area of charisma, acting and noticing and reacting to people.
