I agree with the points made here that OODA is just as good as any other mental technique acronym.
The mental frameworks for decisionmaking under time constraint and information overload are inevitably too rational. Their main objective is to be able to act in progressively efficient manner. However simply relying on these frameworks as prescribed under the real constraints will lead to even higher information overload and thus loss of time.
In fast-flowing situations human actions tend to follow the emotional reaction route, bypassing the the slower rational reasoning. Emotional route is faster, but success of such reaction depends heavily on the learned behavior. Closing your eyes to "hide" is obviously not going to help one to flee a danger.
So, using any kind of mental framework is the most valuable in training. This helps transform the reasoned actions into learned behavior to be [hopefully] triggered as a reaction under the constraints.
