That's an answer so typical of our generation. A symptom of the uncertainty that pervades our lives - that we need to justify not paying attention to any single thing or doing it properly.
Where would we rather spend that "cognitive load"? Snapchat?
What possible reason can we find to justify not paying attention while having a 150¤C pan with boiling vegetable oil.
That statement is just borderline reckless if not silly.

World is getting more and more difficult to deal with, renting the public bike in London now requires accepting a 42 page document. I deal with more 'agreements' "lisences" and "acceptable use policies" in a week than my father did in a year.
