I use video game locations as memory palaces. I use Pokemon to represent numbers. It takes me 10 minutes to memorize a deck. It took me two 20 minute training sessions to learn how. I will eventually use it to learn a new language. I read half of "Moonwalking with Einstein", worked out some exercises, and started practicing. By the next day, I could remember the order of the deck of cards! I can't believe I went my whole school career without knowing such a valuable technique. Can you expand on what you mean by cross-improvement? The differences are huge. One of the first things I did was make a memory papace for my current month and set up my schedule. Also remembering names is laughably trivial for me now. It feels like gaining a super power in the form of memory and litteraly everyone thinks you're a genius (even though they could just as easily learn the skill)
